Great trip to Mexico in the Mu the last few days.
Plane ran perfectly as usual.
Hadn't done the eApis stuff yet so I let fltplan.com handle all of that.
Paid $2.27/G for Jet at one stop with "effectivo". I think that was an odd deal, but it is Mexico afterall..

Tom,
Where did you find $2.27/G. We are generally gouged in PVR (Puerto Vallarte) and not much better in Cabo or Los Mochis.

Culiacan. Not a garden spot. Actually it is a garden spot and was the reason for the trip - farming.
The workers pumping the fuel were very adamant that we consider this $2.27 Jet so I am sure it was some fuel they had "built up" to sell on the side. We were guests of a guy who put us in a big fat hangar with a lot of big iron.
But even in MMPE we pumped 332L for $4.22 / G which wasn't too bad.
Was all I could take to stay within limits on the short flight to OLS.
