9/9/09 - some folks had some bad vibes about that date.
On the news they said the hijackers breached the cockpit!!!! NOT GOOD! |

Bolivian man acted alone in Mexico hijacking, official says MEXICO CITY (CNN) -- A 44-year-old Bolivian drug addict and alcoholic who describes himself as a church minister was the sole person responsible for the brief hijacking Wednesday of a commercial jetliner, a Mexican official said. The suspect, Josmar Flores Pereira, told authorities he hijacked the Boeing 737 jet because the date -- September 9, 2009, or 9/9/9, and 666 reversed -- held some significance for him, said Genaro Garcia Luna, the secretary for public safety.

Flanked by two police officers, the suspect -- wearing a white shirt and blue jeans -- was then paraded in front of the news media. Chewing gum, he smiled.

Aeromexico
Hi,
I believe that Aeromexico is owned by the Mexican Government, I do know however that the Ryan family have a large share in acompany called VIVA AEROBUS along with a Mexican billionare who apparently owns most of the bus companies in Mexico. Viva Aerobus is based out of Monterey Mexico.:ok: |
