I’m not gonna touch the insane ramblings of the Cheeto, but I will remind you that the oceans exist and you can very easily take a boat from Mexico to Canada without ever entering the US if you wanted to.
Avoid populated areas, and fly low. The exact same techniques that they’ve been using for decades. Radar is dumb, it sends back a return when it bounces off objects, but you can’t tell what it is returning, that’s why planes have transponders to supplement more info. If you just don’t do that and fly low it will get filtered out with the terrain most of the time.
Couldn’t they also just legally request a route and land on an official airport (no matter the exact size) with a few people on board as a sort of “VIP” flight and then just smuggle the drugs out of the plane/airport?
It wouldn’t be the first nor last time someone in a harbor or airport was bribed to “misplace” some cargo they handled/saw/whatever.

Or, you know, an airplane. Cartels have planes too.
Honestly planes are a little harder. Pretty much all airspace is monitored so it’s more likely to be noticed.
Then again I haven’t smuggled drugs for the cartels in years so maybe they figured out a way around that little problem.
Fly low, the terrain confuses the targeting systems.
GTA told me that, one mission in particular.

I’m sensing a new business opportunity…
