Incidents


On April 14, 2013, a Cessna 177 aircraft with registration XB-IHT that was preparing to make a flight between Holbox Aerodrome and Mérida International Airport encountered crosswinds during its takeoff run, causing the pilot to lose control of the aircraft and eventually collapsed, causing major damage to the aircraft, however the pilot and the 3 passengers were uninjured. Before the accident, the DGAC issued recommendations about signaling improvements at the aerodrome with more than one wind cone, in addition to improving pilot training.[3][4]

On July 25, 2020, a Cessna 208B Grand Caravan aircraft with registration XA-FTG operated by AX Transporter that was covering a flight between Cancun Airport and Holbox Aerodrome impacted the perimeter fence of a softball field after failing to brake properly at the aerodrome. The 2 crew members and the 5 passengers were uninjured. The aircraft sustained substantial damage.[5][6][7]
