An Aeromexico flight scheduled to depart LAX for Guadalajara on Saturday night has 136 of 144 seats still available. Another flight, scheduled to depart an hour later, has 126 seats vacant.
I flew on Aeromexico once. I had never heard a jet backfire until then.

Did it do it in the air, or on startup? I understand they mix frijoles with the jet fuel! Last time I saw one of their planes, it was a clapped out old first-generation DC-9. I don’t fly foreign flag carriers any more, because you don’t really know if the crew knows how to actually hand-fly the airplane. This is particularly true with the two Korean airlines and it’s what lead to the Asiana “crash” at San Francisco a couple of years ago. The ILS was out and these a$$holes didn’t have the piloting skills to manually fly the approach. Crew: Wee Too Lo, Sum Ting Wong, Bang Ding Ow and Ho Lee $hit!
