I once knew an airline pilot, who told me he had been offered 500k to fly a DC-3 from Mexico to Arizona, back in the 70’s.
He knew better.
A skydiving business I frequented in the late 70’s sold their DC-3 to an “oil company” to use in Alaska. They got a call three months later that it had been found in the Everglades. That’s some really bad navigation.
