The project, called "Spectrum 40" has an initial investment of 300 million dollars and is scheduled to start this year. The first aircraft is expected to be ready in 2018.

The governor explained that the 9 or 10-seat aircraft of the U.S. company Spectrum will be entirely manufactured  in Mexicali. The firm intends to build four to five aircrafts in the first year and about 25 annually, sources of Baja California government told the press.
