Federal police prosecutors have told a Queensland court they are gathering further evidence against five interstate men accused of orchestrating a "black flight" from Papua New Guinea to Australia with more than 52 kilograms of methamphetamine on board.
All five cases were mentioned before the Bundaberg Magistrates Court today, but only one of the alleged pilots, 52-year-old John Horvath from Tahmoor, south-west of Sydney, appeared.
The other men, also from New South Wales, were not required to appear.
