	I live near MMMX and spotting the XA-TOJ was always nice. I have friends who work in Aeromexico Manteinance hangars and they say this particular B762 was one of the most beloved frames, it had been in the company more than 13 or 14 years I think. From MEX, it commonly flew to NRT, CDG, SCL, JFK (Seasonal), MAD, & BCN (Seasonal). As far as I know the aircraft was not repaired and rests stored in Barajas. It looks like it's pretty much its end.
