  1. Have never heard of that being the case. Crossing the border I contact Mexicali Tower. They hand off to the next station and it's just like flight following.
  2. Bought first Mooney with Jimmy. Then he sold it when I upgraded. Absolutely flawless - and I'm a 35 year Real Estate Broker.
  3. I have not found that to be the case. AFAC, Immigration, Administration are all very professional. I tip upon completion of their stamp. Fourth player, Customs, will not accept a tip. Important to note that offering $ before the service is complete falls into a different category... bribe, and is frowned upon.
  4. You need to fly your aircraft into MMPE to get the airport rate. The airport manager will make the res for you.
  5. Baja Bush Pilots continues to make flying to / from Mexico easy. Cleared in at MMPE. Stayed a couple of nights at Mayan Palace. Airport rate for 2 bedroom Suite was $179 US. New AIU process completed with EAPIS. Flew to El Fuerte. Cleared out at MMGM. If anyone is reluctant to fly to Mexico, don't be. This was my 27th year with a Mex flight.
  6. 3 years ago at 72 my underwriter advised they may want me out of a retract at 75. Contacted Avemco. Their response -1. keep a third class 2. keep flying with CAP 3. Check ride and IPC every year. 5600 hours. 1600 in my F. And...wait for it...my rate went down this year!!
  7. My IA asked if I have thought about the one piece belly mod for my 75 F. Hadn’t really. Is it worth the money?
  8. With the cowl closure and 201 windshield I beat book by 3 to knots at all altitudes in my 75 F.
  9. plastic rocker
  10. Should have been cleared - the on / off button broke in the middle.
  11. Switch broke. Tried Lasar. Nope. Any ideas where to find one? Thanks.
  12. Was a pleasure meeting you Russ! Safe travels to you both.
  13. Bought the 9 size. Large 24 tank for sale - $350. Brad
  14. McFarlane part number MC 1241-34.
