I'd love to have visited the airfield but I figure these days with Chavez a white guy and a long lens was asking for trouble so I didn't push it. He hates Americans. Shoot first and ask question later is likely the way things are here.

Somehow, I don't think he had much of a choice! :)

That implies they have a maintenance schedule. I think that would be a first for Venezuela
