Mexico’s fast-growing aerospace sector is here at the Paris Air Show in strength once again (Hall 3 Stand D24), and the latest projections for its future suggest it is set to get bigger still in the next six years or so. Much of the growth in the past few years has come from foreign OEMs opening new facilities and expanding existing properties in their increasingly urgent pursuit of lower production costs and access to markets.

But the country’s indigenous industry has also been growing, as evidenced by the increased number of Mexican exhibitors here at Le Bourget this week. In many cases, these exhibitors are officials from Mexico’s states, vying with each other to attract inward aerospace investment.
