Missouri Kansas Gate Guards, Outside Museum Displays and Air Parks Dodge City: Airport A-26 May 2009 The airport is located to the east of town and is only a couple of miles from the famous downtown area that includes "Boot Hill". While I was taking pictures of the Invader the Longhorns, which are penned up for display next to the aircraft, were checking me out.
Liberal: Mid America Air Museum A-4, A-7, F-4, F-8, F-14, F-105, OV-10, S-2 May 2009 This is a neat museum to visit if one can plan the trip to get to Liberal, which is somewhat off the beaten path. Not only does it have the nine aircraft outside with an F-84 on the way, but the inside collection of warbirds and civilian aircraft is large and interesting. The hospitality shown by the Cindy and others on the staff was outstanding.
Olathe: Johnson County Industrial Airport (Formerly Olathe NAS ) A-4, (2)A-7 October 2009
Topeka: Forbes Field - Air National Guard Base B-57 May 2009
Topeka: Forbes Field - Combat Air Museum EC-121, Mig-17 May 2009
Topeka: Forbes Field - Museum of the Kansas National Guard AH-1, B-57, CH-54, F-4, OH-6, OH-58, UH-1 May 2009 Great little Museum with an excellent outside display of aircraft and armor. Note that the OH-6 is painted in as an Army Helicopter Demonstration Team "Silver Eagle".
Pratt: Pratt Industrial Airport - All Veterans Museum Complex and B-29 Memorial AH-1, F-4, T-38 May 2009 Pratt Field was the first B-29 training base and the aircraft would be flown in directly from the Boeing plant in Wichita 70 miles to the east. Just recently a Museum group purchased the Parachute Loft that is one of the few remaining buildings from the air base to house a museum.
Wakenny: City Park F-14 May 2010 - This Tomcat can be viewed from I-70, especially going westbound as the park is right along the north side of the interstate.
Wichita: Gates Learjet Learjet May 2009
Wichita: Kansas Aviation Museum Various Aircraft October 2009 - The photos of the outside aircraft display for the most part was taken from the museum's control tower which over looks the aircraft due to the incessant rain. The museum is housed in the original airport terminal for the city of Wichita, KS and is a must visit location for the aviation historian, as there is much history of the early aviation that took place in this area. The museum itself is location between the US Air Force and Kansas National Guard to its east and north and the former Boeing B-29 Plant (Now Spirit Aero Systems) to the west and south west. See my Photos of WWII Manufacturing Sites Today page for more information on the area.
