"Been hear all week The Police have been watching our plane every hour. The strip is in great shape the town wants more airplane triffic and are
working hard to show us that.
This is old Mexico the way it was 30 years ago. Its to good to pass up."
from BBP post

these brave flying souls had a blast here...caught lots of fish...drank lots of beer...toured the island...AND their plane was still on the strip when
they wanted to depart! The police and the military took turns doing rounds to check on it.
the flying doctors are here as well doing a clinic...gotta run as I've been assisting them as a translator...have a great cloudy day everybody!

That plane is missing its front landing wheel. Good theft deterrent!

no flies on you David!!!capt. mike - 2-20-2010 at 08:11 AM
what??!!
did they REALLY pull the nose wheel??
what is it, a 206? looks like one.
or a 182 although i never saw a 182 with a scimitar prop.
206 = cartel favorite.
glad the town police is helping make BA GA friendly.ELINVESTIG8R - 2-20-2010 at 08:35 AM
I hope I have no flies on me Shari. That would mean I stink to high heaven.
Oh wait, I do have flies on me!

way too funny D....thanks for the belly laugh!
Now Capt. Mike....ummm...does it LOOK like they pulled the nose wheel????capt. mike - 2-20-2010 at 08:51 AM
yeah...sort of...
i sent MV a PM to ask if i can go next time.
looks like fun peoples.
summer is just around the corner = look for heat escape from AZ desert, pacific baja beats the heck out of SOCAL!! - he said on BBP the YT fishing
with Juan was THE BEST - big yellows.
i am trying to get some interest in members to do a raid on BA this summer.
a group flight would be nice. am confident you could round up enough rooms for all.capt. mike - 2-21-2010 at 10:36 AM
"Shari and Juan took care of everything - House, Lobster dinner, Fishing (20lb yellowtail - Car and much much more. 25 yr of flying to Baja this was
the best trip yet."
quite an endorsement. (off BBP)
i need to get there. i cannot believe all the times i have been to Bahia Tortugas to San Ignacio lagoon and Abreojos/Rene - i never set down in
Asuncion!shari - 2-23-2010 at 08:56 AM
gracias Mike...those folks were the bomb!!! We sure had us some fun and the flying medicos from San Fran were here at the same time so it was a real
flyboys party.
The clinic was terrific and I learned a ton as i got to assist the doc.... and just after this photo was taken, they taxi'd out to the runway and it
started raining...of all things...so they decided to be safe and wait for better weather...the next day.....soooooo....David and Nancy at Galeria
Bahia hosted another one of thier epic dinner/dance parties...crab, abalone c-cktail, rice & beans, tequila...wooo hooo...a good time was had by
all...AND both planes were NOT stolen!!

Upon even closer inspection, one might see the cable lock wrapped around propellers....
