Anyone intending to visit Mexico,should keep in mind that they frown upon anything military, especially if it is owned by a foreigner. Any guns or weapons in your posession, will land you in jail. Even the posession of a single bullet, has seen people lose their freedom; some tourists who also like to shoot, have crossed the border, forgetting that they had a gun or bullets in their vehicles. The cost? Hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes and kickbacks, because the justice -if there is any- will take forever.
Trying to get an airplane out from that country, will see you embroiled in more red tape than you really care for, and in the end, you might end up getting something different from what you paid for.
I would think that a total boycott on any French airshows, any aerial related activities should be enforced by all, until more reasonable methods,procedures and laws, are enacted.
Money talks . . . and France receives a lot of money from tourism.
