Been flying around Alaska and just given up a clandestine cargo job after failing 3 times. The law aircraft just refused to leave. Furthest tag I had on it was showing 18NM away. That time I managed to crash... Was flying in mountain passes and trying to stay under 1000 feet, an overweight Maule does not like trying to climb suddenly when hitting a dead end.

 

Before I've got them to about 4NM away and they've just disappeared.

Hello FatIgor! Well, i know that with the mountains and all, those clandestine jobs get harder...what i always do is, first of all, only fly during the night...i never ever turn any lights (not even the panel) or radio on on NEVER pass 100 ft from the ground! If i have an obstacle that i have no idea how high it gets (and of course i can go around it) i fly as close as possible to the ground...literally almost hitting the trees! It´s been a while since i saw a "law enforcement" plane! Well, worked for me! Good luck and keep on flying!

Never fly a direct course to your destination and you'll probably never see law enforcement. Also, just because he's on your radar doesn't mean he can see you. If you can stay behind a ridge, for example, he'll leave you alone.

 

I've only had law enforcement show up once in 20 tons worth of flights. I immedlately headed for the Hawaiian shore in the direction I wanted to go, hugged the shortline next to the ciiffs, while tthe iterceptor was over land. The pursuit plane never disappeared, but he never came after me either. I think he was flying overhead when I was on short final.
