November 26, 2005 -- CIA plane flew human cargo from Turkey to the United States via Copenhagen and Keflavik. Turkish press reports cite the movements last March of Path Corporation's (a CIA front company) Learjet (N221SG) from Istanbul, where it took on some prisoners handed over to the CIA by Turkish security forces. The plane took off from Istanbul on March 7, 2005 and landed at Copenhagen at 0900 local time, where it remained for 23 hours before departing at 0804 on March 8 for Keflavik, Iceland and onward to Stephenville, Newfoundland and then to an unknown destination in the United States. The revelations have prompted calls from legislators in Denmark, Iceland, and Turkey for a full explanation from the United States.
