Pueblo Weisbrod Aircraft & Space Museum
The Pueblo Airport began as the Pueblo
Army Air Base (PAAB) in World War II.
Construction of the base began in March
1942 and by August of that year training
of bomber crews began.
Although most
of the training was focused on the B-24
Liberator, a variety of aircraft types
including the B-17 Flying Fortress and
B-29 Superfortress also saw service at
the base.
In all, approximately 8,000
aircrew were trained at PAAB. At the end
of the war the base was closed and the
facilities given to the City of Pueblo.
After
The Pueblo Weisbrod Aircraft Museum(PWAM)
is a nonprofit museum owned by the City
of Pueblo and managed by the Pueblo
Historical Aircraft Society. The museum
was started in the early 1970’s by the
then Pueblo City Manager Fred Weisbrod.
A group of interested parties approached
the Pueblo city government with an offer
to care for and restore the aircraft.
This group later became the Pueblo
Historical Aircraft Society (PHAS) and
is charged with managing the museum.

Before
To
preserve
the
museum’s
aircraft,
it became apparent indoor storage was
required. In 2001 the first 30.000 Sq.
Ft. hanger was erected and in 2010 a
second hanger was completed
The museum
boasts an extensive display of military
artifacts, a developing space display,
a dedicated STEM (Science, Technology,
Engineering and Math) lab, as well as
a library with a wide range of aircraft
related books, manuals and DVDs.
The
library
also
maintains
archives
of
recorded audio and video interviews of
military veterans. Aircraft and vehicle
restoration is a major part of the PHAS
mission.
