Ex-Aerolíneas pilot who shot capybaras faces federal probe over fatal plane crash

Sebastián Favre, a former Aerolíneas Argentinas pilot dismissed in January 2022, is under federal investigation in Campana for unauthorized use of an aircraft that crashed in Uruguay, killing both crew members. The shooting of capybaras in Nordelta adds a separate wildlife crime dimension, but the core intelligence interest is the aviation incident and its legal fallout.
