Western New Mexico Aviation Heritage Museum

The Western New Mexico Aviation Heritage Museum is a small aviation museum located at the Grants-Milan airport (KGNT) in Grants, New Mexico. It was dedicated on June 9, 2012.[3]

It commemorates the Los Angeles to Amarillo segment of the Transcontinental Air Transport, an early air mail provider. It consists of two 1929 structures: a 55-foot beacon tower and a small building with a generator. It also has a concrete arrow which helped aviators find the correct direction to continue in.[4][2]
