Information for Liga Pilots

Welcome to the Liga International Pilots Website!

LIGA International (The Flying Doctors of Mercy) is a non-profit organization that provides free health care and education to the people of Sinaloa Mexico, since 1934. LIGA Pilots are a critical to the completion of our mission. Our Pilots and there planes allow LIGA to transport the Medical Staff and support Volunteers to our clinic in Sinaloa Mexico in a timely manner. Without you we would not be able to provide these services on a monthly basis.

We provide an opportunity for our LIGA Pilot Volunteers to safely fly into Mexico in a coordinated group, to some unique destinations and spend quality time with like minded Pilots and Medical Volunteers. We fly to 3 clinic locations in Mexico and also organize several day trips for our volunteers (Copper Canyon, Baja Whales Trip etc). For more information on our clinic trips and a typical weekend please Click Here.

You are about to embark on some important and rewarding work. We want you to feel fully prepared for your journey to Mexico and have compiled this information to assist you. While this contains our most up-to-date information, procedures in Mexico do change from time to time. A good source of the latest information on flying to Mexico is the Baja Bush Pilots website, with which we suggest you supplement this information.

After reviewing this material, we also recommend that you speak with an experienced LIGA pilot to gain a further understanding of, and preparation for, your initial trip to Mexico with LIGA. Our volunteer coordinator, Pat Savage (pat@ligainternational.org), can put you in touch with such a pilot.

We hope to see you at one of our future LIGA clinic trips soon. Review the New Member Info and then Join as a Member. The dues are $ 50/member which help support the following many features available to LIGA Members.
