stop saying nonsense, I have flown in my airline all over Mexico, US, Central America and the Caribbean
Eveb the smallest airports with airline operations like Matamoros MMMT, Minatitlan MMMT, or Nuevo Laredo MMNL have more than acceptable survelliance equipment.
Durango’s weather has always being treacherous. You have no idea and by the way you write, I really doubt you have left your home PC.....
