8. No. They did not stop to refuel

at a U.S. military facility. They stopped to refuel at a Honduran military base where the U.S. shares the runway. Not the same thing as the U.S. "helping" a "right wing coup".

At that time there was a lot of caterwauling in the LatAm group because the U.S. did not actively intervene in Honduran internal affairs -- caterwauling by the same motormouths who also demand the U.S. NOT interfere in the internal affairs of Latin American countries.
