""The FAA issued flight advisory notices to Airmen for specified areas of Mexico, Central America, Panama, Bogota, Guayaquil and Mazatlan Oceanic Flight Regions, and in airspace within the eastern Pacific Ocean," an FAA spokesperson said, adding that the advisory is effective for 60 days beginning on Friday. The warnings cite possible interference with global navigation satellite systems that could cause a "potentially hazardous situation.""
""Following the Venezuela operation, hundreds of flights by major airlines throughout the Caribbean were canceled after the FAA curbed flights in the region. US President Donald Trump has also suggested possible military strikes against drug cartel targets in Mexico. "We are going to start now hitting land, with regard to the cartels. The cartels are running Mexico," Trump told Fox News last week.""
The FAA issued flight advisory notices to Airmen covering specified areas of Mexico, Central America, Panama, Bogota, Guayaquil and Mazatlan Oceanic Flight Regions, and airspace within the eastern Pacific Ocean. The advisory is effective for 60 days beginning Friday. The warnings cite possible interference with global navigation satellite systems that could create a potentially hazardous situation for aircraft. The advisories follow heightened regional tensions after a US military operation in early January that led to the kidnapping of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife on narco-terrorism charges, and after hundreds of Caribbean flights were canceled. US President Donald Trump suggested possible military strikes against cartel targets in Mexico. Mexican authorities said the FAA advisory has no operational implications for Mexico, imposes no restrictions on Mexican airlines or operators, and does not change civil aviation operating conditions in national airspace.
