Southward tips
SW and WWEL,
Just the sorts of info that will help to fill in the gaps. Any suggestions for handling agents? I've never used that approach before, and generally had no problem just popping into various countries and trusting that we could sort out the paperwork. A friend commented upon using a handling agent, but his exact term was "ridiculously expensive handling agent". We're not ferrying an aircraft for a fixed fee, so if it takes a little extra time that is probably preferable to a large fee. Plus, our schedule may not be set in stone, so flexibility is helpful. Anyway, I'd be curious to check out what they do if I had a lead to contact one.
We were in Bariloche last November, and had a great time. Shame it's been so disrupted. Beautiful place. Maybe the volcano will temporarily reduce the inflated property prices?
Thanks for any and all details. You never know when one will be something we overlooked.
BTW, is 406mh ELT required anywhere in South America? It's on hold in the US and Caribbean.
