The Kansas Aviation Museum (KAM) chronicles the growth and development of general aviation in Kansas, with a focus on Wichita's past and present influence on the industry. Housed in the original Wichita Municipal Airport Terminal Building, a historic Art Deco structure, the museum features a growing collection of aircraft and aviation-related artifacts. KAM educates the public about aeronautical science and history, showcasing exhibits on local aircraft companies, aviation legends, and specific groups like "Women of Aviation" and "Rip Gooch Black Aviators." Visitors can explore indoor and outdoor exhibits, climb into aircraft cockpits, and use flight simulators. The museum's mission is to connect Kansas's aviation heritage to an innovative future for all, inspiring future generations.
