Mexico?

[vpjr 18]

Any aircraft Operators sending their planes to Mexico this winter? Any boogies or jumpers going that way? How was it in the past? I havent flown in Mexico in years.

Can't tell you anything about boogies, but when I was in Cabo they were doing a tandem operation that was landing on the beach. Looked sweet! They said 500 jumps minimum experience. Looked like they were putting up plenty of loads though.

The dz in Cabo is skydive el sol. It's an amazing place to jump! But yes, there is a 500 jump min since the landing area is crazy.

There's also a dz in guadalajara but I have never been. One of my friends jumps pretty regualarly there.

I think most of the bigger resort areas have tandem mills. There wasn't anything in Acapulco when I was there last year though.

If you're going to be close to Mexico City, you've got Skydive Cuatla and Skydive Tequesquitengo both within about an hour of the city.

I've jumped at both and had a good time. They weren't busy when I visited and we were just jumping small Cessna's, but Tequesquitengo has a Dornier and Cuatla is the winter home of one of Skydive Chicago's Otters. The aircraft situation may have changed since I was last there, you'd want to verify before making plans.

I got nuthin

Cuautla has a PAC now.
They have a very nice boogie in Puerto Escondido from the 26th of Dez to the 3rd of January 2010. I only got the facebook link:

P. E. huh? Tempting. I will be passing through there late November. Do you have a contact or website I could poach? Spending two months in Playa Del Carmen. Any word if something is going on there?

Thanks
