Hurricane Odile vs. Cabo Airport(SJD)

Pic #2 the tower says MMSL on it. Sucks!

Ah, I noticed that earlier in the 172 pic but at a glance thought it was MSL with a number for field elevation. Didn't notice the clearly visible one in the Caravan pic. Time to turn in my wings.

It'd be worth having my vacation ruined if I got to fly on a 727.

I don't know, I'm a pretty huge 727 fan, but if the cost of ticket is riding out a Hurricane in Mexico...I think I'd pass.

I've been jump seat on a 727 a couple of times. Not a good place to be.

I live in La Paz, Mexico we got hit pretty hard with the hurricane possibly the strongest hurricane ever.
Here are some more pictures I took the day after. Unfortunately the plane I was working on got destroyed.

I am not sure, there are 5 outside on the ramp and there might have a couple more in the hangar.
