We are off on a Mexico hoplist presented by BGA. Departing MMMX (Lic Benito Juarez Intl) and our first stop of this journey is MMPB (Hermanos Serdan Intl.) This is a 43 mile trip at altitudes a bit high for the Antonov AN-2. The official Mexico City altitude is over 7300 feet.







We have seen the inside - now let's look at the outside of the AN-2




And looking at some of Mexico














Getting ready to touch down at MMPB

The second hop of the BGA Mexico Tour was from MMPB to MMHC (Tehuacan) which I flew in a Pitts Special S-1S, just in case I neded some more oomph than I had in the AN-2..

Departing MMPB and the air was dirty.


A little aerobatics which meant you didn't have to read the name upside down on the side of the aircraft


Aah.. a golf course and a reservior lake ahead... this might be a place for outdoor recreation.




The dam on the left to create the reservior.


And see the down-stream side of the dam and the riverbed to control overflow of the dam.








Could that be MMHC ahead? looks like a dirt runway.


Nope, not a runway...I was approaching some streets.


The airport and runway a mile or two ahead.


Next hop is to MM20, Cordoba.
