The plenary of the Regional Assembly has given its support to the motion of the Popular Party, defended by the regional deputy.
Mónica Meroņo with which support has been obtained for the proposal to install the Infante de Orleans Foundation headquarters at the San Javier airport.
A foundation, which due to different vicissitudes, is looking for a definitive location for its collection of 44 historic aircraft, which currently houses the Cuatro Vientos airport in Madrid, as the deputy explained.
Meroņo said that we are talking about an opportunity since it means transforming the terminal of the airport of San Javier into a museum of great tourist attraction that will have a great economic impact in the surrounding municipalities.
For the popular autonomic deputy, the region would win a unique permanent museum.
The Foundation owns a collection that configures a museum of historical aircraft with 32 different models of aircraft that have played an important role in Spanish aeronautical history.
Meroņo has highlighted the power of attraction that would have among aeronautical fans and said that there are only facilities of this nature in France, Germany and the United Kingdom.
All the models are in perfect condition, in optimal flight conditions and are shown in periodic exhibitions that bring together hundreds of spectators, explained Mónica Meroņo for whom once it is not operational, the airport of San Javier is an ideal place to host this living museum whose airplanes are a great tourist attraction.
The autonomic deputy of the PP has also remembered the proximity of the airport facilities with the General Air Academy, an institution deeply rooted in our Region.
The initiative has had the support of the PSOE and Citizens and the abstention of Podemos.
