War Eagles Air Museum
War Eagles Air Museum (WEAM) is an aerospace and automotive museum with several exhibits. It is located at Doña Ana County International Jetport in Santa Teresa, New Mexico.[1]
its exhibits include over 35 aircraft and over 55 cars. The museum features one of the largest collections of historic military and civilian aircraft, and classic automobiles in the Southwest. The Museum started as a dream of West Texas engineer, rancher and oilman John T. MacGuire and his wife Betty MacGuire. As Pilots, John and Betty began to amass an impressive private collection of warbirds in the 1980s. As the collection grew, the MacGuires looked for a place to build a museum to display their collection to the public. After considering several options such as Las Cruces, NM and Reno, NV, John decided to build the museum closer to their home near the Doña Ana County International Airport. From the beginning, the Museum's mission has been to educate visitors about the history and technology of the aircraft and automobiles on display.
