Mexican Business Aviation Association ("MBAA")

Good day Ladies and Gentlemen,

I hope you were able to join the conversation regarding the Mexican Business Aviation Association during the Business Aviation Conference and Exhibition (BACE2019) in Las Vegas on October 22nd.  I had the privilege of being a part of the meeting along with a group of aviation professionals from several key organizations from all over the world.  The European, French, German, Middle East Business Aviation Associations were represented as well as the International Business Aviation Council (IBAC).  The National Business Aviation Association was also present, and kind enough to host the meeting at their booth.

During the meeting we concluded that it is crucial to poll both Mexican National Operators (XA,XB) and Foreign Operators regarding important challenges flight departments are facing when operating to and within Mexico.  Understanding the most significant challenges will help prioritize the issues that need to be addressed.  It is extremely important to have the support of a minimum of 7-10 companies or individuals participating.  Your feedback is imperative for the success of the Association.
