Numerous readers questioned why a firefight was needed for a La Chapiza Cartel pilot operator. El Jando or El Piloto has been involved in several high-impact actions, one of which stands out as the Durango explosives attacks, in which a small aircraft was used in November 2024. The towns attacked in Durango were alleged strongholds of Los Cabrera Cartel who are key allies of the Mayo Zambada criminal organization.
