Sales for export.—A sale of aircraft parts to a Mexican airline to service its planes is not subject to tax where the parts are shipped by a common carrier to a location on the U.S. Mexican border where an independent freight forwarder, with the assistance of the airline's employees, processed the property through U.S. and Mexican Customs and the parts were moved on a continuous and unbroken journey to the foreign destination other than for unavoidable delays that were incidental to their journey.
