Incidents and Accidents
On February 11, 2010, a MexicanaClick Fokker 100 landed at Monterrey Airport with its landing gear up after pilots reported a malfunction. The aircraft was bound for Nuevo Laredo, but diverted to Monterrey given its longer runway and better emergency response capabilities. None of the 96 people on board were injured. MexicanaClick has considered hiring only USA trained pilots since the incident, but quickly backed away after a senior captain threw a bottle of liquor at management.
