The gorgeous statue of the man flying behind the raptor, or the breathtaking space/architecture and design details of the main terminal (after you pass through the requisite security blockade.), replete with New Mexico touches. It definitely tells you you're not in Denver Stapleton or Chicago O'hare.

Be sure to notice the two magnificent Wilson Hurley paintings, as well as other NM art work, at the bottom of the escalator from the gate level.
