New Mexico Airport System Plan Update LAS CRUCES, NM (February 16, 2016) – Aviation plays a crucial role in New Mexico by providing access to critical services such as air ambulance, firefighting, agricultural spraying, law enforcement, military and pilot training, air cargo services, business travel, and tourism. As such, the New Mexico Airport System Plan (NMASP) is currently being updated to evaluate the economic impacts of aviation to our community, and develop a planning mechanism to evaluate and monitor future infrastructure needs. The NMASP serves as a working blueprint for future airport planning. In February, the NMASP committee members gathered for a final meeting to review and evaluate the goals and measurements of the report. This committee consists of elected officials, FAA and state agency representatives, airport managers, along with aviation industry and pilot representatives. The public was also invited to a Public Information Workshop to see, first-hand, the infrastructure investments that are being proposed at airports throughout the State.
For over half a century, Molzen Corbin has partnered with communities across the State to develop and fund airport projects that fuel economic growth, support tourism and protect public safety. Our experience ranges from small general aviation airports like Jal Airport to large commercial hubs like the Albuquerque Sunport, as well as the runway at Spaceport America, the world’s first purpose-built, commercial spaceport.

New Runway Opens in Belen BELEN, NM (November 20, 2015) – Local and state officials joined to celebrate the new crosswind runway at the Belen Alexander Municipal Airport. The ribbon cutting event was announced by Mayor Jerah Cordova in an effort to improve safety and efficiency on the existing runway, as well as enhance economic development for the entire community. Mayor Cordova highlighted the positive economic impacts from investment in infrastructure. “We have had interest from aviation related businesses, everything from cargo to basic transport, shuttling people back and forth.” The runway will expand airport service by accommodating larger aircraft. In fact, City leaders are also working with the U.S. Air Force to generate future training opportunities for military missions. The addition of this runway enhances Belen’s multi-modal transportation leadership position that includes a major rail facility and interstate highway access. The $5.5 million construction project was completed early and was funded by the City of Belen and the New Mexico Department of Transportation Aviation Division.
