Mood: Have Baja Fever

[*] posted on 9-6-2018 at 09:25 AM


I think the airports on my maps are only those seen or obvious from the ground. Nearly every major fish camp had or has a runway. That was how they got fresh lobster to market. Best to check with Baja Bush Pilots (Bush Pilots International) on the status of the runways. Many have been closed (ditched) if the military felt they could be used to transport drugs. A large fee is also needed to be paid to keep a runway open.

You can leave your plane outside or ask to leave inside this house.
