Charles ‘Chuck’ Aaron (call sign “Malibu”) is the only pilot licensed by the FAA to perform aerobatics in a helicopter in the United States, and one of only three such pilots in the world. In 1980, Aaron worked on the air rescue program for NASA’s Space Shuttle, and he founded his own company, FX Helicopters in Westlake Village, California in 1997.

Aaron is also an experienced test pilot, having test-flown a tracking system for the Boeing AH-64 Apache; and an infrared vision system as the first helicopter pilot to deliberately fly into brownout conditions. He is also an FAA certificated Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) Mechanic, known for having assembled three working TAH-1F Cobras from surplus parts. (Wikipedia)

The location of Palenque International Airport was chosen due to the infrastructure and technology that it has. Natural scenery is surrounding the site, not to mention that the archaeological site is just behind the area.
