History
Originating from an exhibition at Capitan Boiso Lanza Air Base, the museum was founded on 8 August 1954 by Colonel (Av.) Jaime Meregalli. The museum was moved a number of times in its early years, first to Air Base No. 1 in Carrasco and shortly thereafter to the Cilindro Municipal in downtown Montevideo.[1] It became the Colonel Jaime Meregalli Aeronautical Museum on 17 March 1993.[2] On 4 December 1997, the museum suffered a fire which damaged a number of aircraft in the collection.[3] Eventually, in 2013, it was moved to Carrasco International Airport.[2]
