1Opinion of the Court

PIERCE, Circuit Judge:

This appeal presents numerous issues— some susceptible of summary disposition, others more complex — raised by defendants, who, together with others, were charged with and convicted of participating in a large-scale conspiracy to import heroin from the Middle East and to distribute it in the United States. Some issues apply to appellants as a group, others apply only to individual appellants. We set forth so much of the factual background as is necessary for an understanding of this appeal.
