We found this FAA warning and sent it through to Mike and Jean. Although not a very recent update it is good for them to be aware of FAA warnings as they are flying into areas we have had little time to research about.
CAUTION NOTICE: FLYING TO MEXICO
Flying Cessna Single Engine Aircraft to Mexican Locations Should Be Taken With Extreme Caution.
Use of Prop Locks and Other Security Devices Is Highly Recommended.
HOWEVER, AS RECENTLY AS JUNE 2010, THE THIEVES ARE FINDING WAYS TO DEFEAT SECURITY DEVICES AND PROP LOCKS.
Baja Locations Fall In The “Highest Threat” Area. There are indications that popular airports have persons working with the thieves who alert them when a preferred plane arrives.
