Dozens of talented, dedicated and highly skilled volunteers donate countless hours of their time restoring aircraft so they can take their place telling the story of Kansas aviation. Restoration projects range from the earliest production aircraft to the much revered Beechcraft Bonanza.
Our archives are a gold mine of aviation history for the United States and the world. We have original documents, photographs, negatives, drawings, periodicals and blueprints of many historic aircraft.
There has been a murder at the airport and we need your help figuring out whodunnit!
Start the evening with a delicious dinner while mingling in character with our cast of characters. As the night progresses, there will be a murder most foul, and it will be up the guests to figure out who the murderer could be! All guests will receive character information ahead of time, and will have access to clues and information to help them solve the case.
Prizes will be awarded to those who solve the crime, as well as to the best dressed, and to those who gather the most money by either allowing other characters to bribe them, or extorting money from people who want to keep their secrets quiet.
Tickets are just $50/person, and include dinner and a fully interactive experience. All proceeds go to support the educational mission of the Kansas Aviation Museum. Members get $5 off per person! Make sure you have your membership!
