FAA audit of Mexico's IASA program finds 21 observations, final result due Feb 2027

The FAA report lists 21 technical‑operational and administrative observations after reviewing 339 reactivos of Mexico's IASA program, and the agency will visit the AFAC in December to assess how the observations are addressed, with a final audit result expected in February 2027.

Mexico has maintained Category 1 air‑security status since September 2023, after being downgraded to Category 2 in May 2021 for not meeting ICAO standards.
