Interesting Stop

We stopped at a small air museum west of Alburquque. The buildings were restored markers used for the first Trans Atlantic Air Transport in the late 1920s. The pilot flew at 1000 feet and navigated by the large arrows and bright beacons on the ground.
In addition to the information about the navigational system, there was an exhibit of Charles Lindbergh's areal photography alongside photos taken recently of the same sites. An interesting stop on the road and a great chance to stretch our legs.
