For those on CenAm 10, we are departing Chandler (CHD) at about 8:00 A.M. Monday morning.  Our route will have us entering Mexico at Cd Obregon continuing on to (we believe) Zacatecas (MMZC) for the night.  Might arrive Palanque (MM60) one day early, don´t know now.

We will attempt to update as we travel the next several weeks down to Panama and back, look in the "Group Trips" menu.....  Jack

September 30, 2009:  Mexico Extends the 406 Requirement, DHS makes changes to website, support is critical: 

Mexico City DGAC has just informed us that they have extended the 406 MHz ELT requirment to April 2, 2010.  Pilots may fly in Mexico with the 121.5 ELT until April 2, 2010 at which time the 406 MHz ELT will be required. 

DHS makes major changes to the eAPIS website making entering information much easer. 

These changes were suggested and made possible, in part, by the BBP, AOPA, and other flying orginizations.  And membership to BBP, AOPA, etc. is critical so that we have the funds to continue to work with both the US and Mexican governments to make flying safer and more enjoyable both in the States and across the borders.

Free eAPIS Service:  The BBP has a program that will help you with your eAPIS requirements....  For current BBP Members for a limited time, we will register and open an account for you for no charge.  Conditions apply, Click here

MedJet Service:  A program that will provide medical evacuation from almost anywhere in the world to almost anywhere else in the world....  at a very low cost based on an annual MedJet membership fee.Click here

24/7 Mexican Liability Insurance:  The BBP has put together a program that allows you to purchase Mexican Liability Insurance directly from the BBP Website, instantly.  Click here

Live, play, and fly from Phoenix´s southeast valley community of Queen Creek at Pegasus, a new airpark located just below the San Tan Mountains in sunny Arizona.

Join Karaen & myself along with BBP members Dan Corey, Ken Foster, Gordon Bluth, Jack Becker, and others who own, are building, or live in this exciting new community.

And, now is the time as these one acre lots are being offered by the developers at an amazing low price. 

Live the dream….  Invest with other like minded pilots in an airpark with a paved, lighted 4,000´ strip at prices that are so low they demand serious consideration.

We have been advised that some Mexican AOE´s have been filing aircraft into Bay of LA.  At the prompting....

....the same process is being used at El Fuerte.

Impending permanent closure of Bay of LA airport (BAX)

We have added an additional menu choice to "Airports of Mexico" to show changes, additions, and or deletions to the airports/airstrips in the book.

We are requesting that our members be the eyes and ears for us regarding airports / airstrips.

If you see a change of a permanent nature to one of the airports that we have in the book or, if you see an addition that is registered with Mexico which is not listed, please let us know so that we can confirm and add to this area.

Thanks in advance for this help,   Jack

Menu choice is listed towards the top of our menu choices

We were just told at 6:00 A.M. this morning (Sat, Oct 31) that Immigration and Customs are now at MMPE.  And the name is Mar de Cortes International Airport.  To see more information on the new airport, click below.

Two things:

If you bring anything down on your own to Mulege, it is critical that you do not leave your donations un-attended.  Once you get there....

And, we have supplies in the following areas that need to be picked up....

We will be removing “Guest Access” from our Members section of our Bulletin Board as of Friday, October 2.  If you wish continued access, membership in the BBP is only $49 a year, less than a dinner for two out on the town.  With membership, you have full access to all of our website including the Bulletin Board, Information on flight planning, airports, Central America, fuel prices, etc.  And in addition, you will receive critical alerts as warranted regarding fuel, airport closures, etc. as part of your membership.

And, again, thanks to all that helped in the Huracan Jimena relief efforts.
