AFAC will not be writing flight plans to almost all private airports after May 27, 2025
Airport owners have the opportunity to re-classify their airport to accept all invited aircraft if they take appropriate action.
As a service to owners and BBP Members, we are providing additional information as well as a simple form for the airport or their legal representative to use to change their classification. This paperwork must be done prior to May 27 to avoid airport closures.

And if you only want the guide book, it is there also. Also known as the "Red Book, it is all new for 2020.
Information has been checked and re-checked and we have added more Mexican airports including the soon to open airport at Creel.Also, for the curious, we have added all the ICAO airports in Cuba. Not that US pilots will be landing there, it is for our foreign members as well as those that overfly Cuba and are looking for an emergency landing place (no problem)

Mexican Liability insurance
The BBP now provides Mexican Liability insurance for aircraft that are not older than 50 years. This is a change as in the past, our underwriter allowed aircraft between 50 and 60 years old to be insured through a special application process. In addition, in a major change, our underwriters will not write insurance on some aircraft including helicopters. See exclusions on our application form,
There are some US underwriters in the US that do cover Mexico's liability requirements. If your aircraft is more than 50 years old, this could be a solution.
