The Las Cruces International Airport has three runways and is an ideal place for general and corporate aviation. Located a few miles from downtown Las Cruces, the airport is more than just the runways, tie-down space, and a full-service FBO – they also have a wonderful model collection on display.
The Model Collection of Rolf Mitchel at the Las Cruces International Airport, which includes 60 models of ships and historic planes, were assembled and donated by Rolf Mitchel, a former member of the Airport Advisory Board and a longtime resident of Las Cruces. Visitors will love the in-depth look the collection gives into the sea and air vessel models, many of which were similar to what was used in historic battles including World War II.
