Flying over Baja

motoged - 10-27-2006 at 10:22 PM

Pilots,
I am looking for information as to how I can hook up with a pilot in the Mulege or Bahia de los Angeles areas between Dec 20 and Jan 10th who would be willing to fly me around for an hour or two so I can see the terrain from a different perspective. (Mulege area preferred)

I have driven, ridden, hitchhiked, walked and paddled....and been on a jet over the Baja, but never in the civilized form of transportation offered by a small craft.

I appreciate that there would be a cost for such an undertaking and that other considerations would need to be discussed.

If anyone can offer a suggestion, please reply off-line to me at
<motoged@shaw.ca>

Thanks for any suggestions

Skeet,
Now that's the Grand Tour.
What I have in mind is an hour or two in a small plane and it seems like Mike's Screaming Airlines will do the trick.

My hopeful route would be northwest from Mulege over the mountains towards San Ignacio, San Francisco mountains/canyons and back as a loop and also southwards to Loreto and Agua Verde/Timbabichi and back over San Javier to Mulege.I have seen some of that by motorcycle but have never been in a small (4 person) plane or over those areas except in a commercial airliner.

Thanks for your ideas...:coolup:
