Flights to Mexico City (MMMX)
I'm just going to rehash what Ben sent me a few days ago. These will be the routes that will be available for the fly-in for AeroTexas. As far as a I know I don't think there's a reservation system, so you can just fly-in whenever you like on that day.
TO MMMX
KAUS-MMMX: AUS2.SAT.J21.TMN.VITOS1A
KHOU-MMMX: PSX3.PSX.J177.TAM.UJ14.TMN.VITOS1A
KSAT-MMMX: BOWIE3.LRD.J21.TMN.VITOS1A
KELP-MMMX: CJS.UJ47.SLP.UJ45.QET.KOBEK1A
FROM MMMX
MMMX-KAUS: BETER1.BETER.J177.TAM.UJ19.MAM.J25.BRO.J25.CWK
MMMX-KHOU: BETER1.BETER.J177.TAM.UJ53.AGUAS.UJ25.CRP.LISSE6
MMMX-KSAT: BETER1.BETER.J177.TAM.UJ19.MAM.J25.BRO.J25.CRP.LEMIG1
MMMX-KELP: [SID].TLC.J13.PTJ.UJ45.SLP.UJ47.TRC.J42.DEL.UJ27.OMVAV
The departure procedures vary in Mexico City, so there are more options than I have listed for the departure procedure out of Mexico City.
I would advise all participating pilots to have charts ready to reference for the Mexico portion of the flight; I was able to find everything at www.vatmex.com.
Thanks, Ben!

New Planes
Tommie has been busy with planes. Here are a few pictures to whet your appetite.
The first is a Citation X - I believe this is for FSX:
And here's a preview of the new colors for the Brasilia (Embraer 120), with vintage logos as designed for AeroTexas by our newest partner, Ben Holzer:

Runway Visual Range
Real time access to RVR data at airports in the US. My favorite is the RVR Monitor. Currently Charlotte (KCLT), Memphis (BNA) and Baltimore/DC (KBWI) are indicating RVRs less than the cutoff of 6500 feet. The lowest is currently Charlotte with an RVR of 2000 feet, though the 1452Z METAR doesn't indicate this:
Charlotte reporting winds 242 at 4 knots, visibility 2.5 miles in mist. Overcast layer at 400. Temperature 55.4*F, dewpoint 53.6*F, relative humidity is 94 percent. The barometric pressure is 29.79
