Classic Aero-TV: Albuquerque Balloon Museum -- Where Ballooning Comes Alive

From 2010: Preserving The History Of An Amazing Facet Of Aviation

ANN's phenomenal trip to Albuquerque for the 2010 ABQ Balloon Fiesta is the gift that keeps on giving... both with the memories we have of the extraordinary visual delights of that week as well as the tremendous opportunities our Aero-TV crews had to experience so much of the world of ballooning, its people and its history.

One of the more intriguing aspects of that trip was our visit to the Anderson-Abruzzo International Balloon Museum. The Anderson-Abruzzo Albuquerque International Balloon Museum presents the development of ballooning through historic, scientific and artistic objects reflecting world-wide achievements in this field.

Their holdings were brought together through the efforts of the Anderson and Abruzzo families, the City of Albuquerque, various local, national and international supporters, and with the support of the Anderson-Abruzzo International Balloon Museum Foundation.

Collections include material donated by individuals directly involved in ballooning endeavors, as well as by ballooning and history enthusiasts from all over the world. They also hold the Soukup and Thomas International Balloon and Airship Museum collection, donated to the City of Albuquerque through the City of Mitchell, South Dakota in 2000. The Balloon Museum's collection includes more than fifty historic and contemporary gondolas, many accompanied by complete balloon systems.

Join Aero-TV and Marilee Schmit Nason, Ph.D., Curator of Collections on a tour of this spectacular facility....
