Improvements

A couple of ideas floating around in response to the Mouriño plane crash: the Mexico City government wants to build an airport that for which the approaches to landing don't pass over some of the city's most populated zones (imagine if it wasn't a Learjet but a 747 that had crashed), and Secretary of Transportation and Communication Luis Téllez has discussed ensuring that the pilots for flights carrying top functionaries come the same air force elite that supplies the pilots for the president's plane. Those are both good ideas, but the first will be complicated, and the second seems like it should have been in place decades ago.
