I arrived in Puertecitos Thursday afternoon.

Can you post that the runway has been graded end to end , but they left the south 500 feet unusable
It has tractor tracks and sand up to 6" deep . Unless you have tundra tires --don't try it !

What a fawking mess !!!

that leaves only 1500 ft. left to land!!

be forewarned any pilotos headed there soon!

Capt Mike,
How many feet of runway do you have in Mulege? What is a safe number of landing feet for an aircraft like yours?

el gallito is 3700 foots long.
my limit in baja is 1700' , la purisima the shortest one i'll go in to.
its not the landing you need distancia for......its all about the take off when its hot!!!
i can land in 700' if i need to.
