Long shot, I know, but I'm after some info on this as I will be in Buenos Aires for a week in Dec and I'm considering flying to Iguazu Falls (Argentina/Brazil border) for a couple of days.
If anyone can answer any of the following, it would be greatly appreciated.....
1 Can an Aussie hire a/c here on an Aussie ATPL?
2 Any idea on a/c available- 4 people total - thinking fast single or light twin depending on cost per seat mile.
3 Hire costs!
4 Distance/ flight times between ports.
5 Suitable airfields at Iguazu.
6 Wisdom of such flight considering weather in early Dec and terrain.

I expect only someone with local knowledge or experience in this region will be able to help, but if anyone can put me in touch with someone qualified to provide some info, or point me to a suitable web link, that'd be great.

Off to work (play!) shortly, so may not be able to acknowledge replies immediately.

Cheers in advance!

Hi, I am From Buenos Aires. I am a pilot too so I can help you.
You will need to fly with a local pilot because off the rules.
The oaci designator of Iguazu is SARI and the designator from San Fernando, Bs As is SADF
The distance is aprox 1050 Km
You can get a C210 for 0.85 Us Dolars x Km
or a PA23 radar equiped for 1,10/1,15 dolars x Km
Here are some flight schools web site so you can have a reference and email them
