Airline History Museum at Kansas City Downtown Airport

There are airline museums and then there are airline museums! For actual aircraft, this holds no equal. The Airline History Museum is housed in a former TWA hanger containing a Douglas DC-3, Martin 404, and the star of the show L1049 Super G Connie. The Super G was the genesis of the museum. It they can add a Convair 880, the collection would be complete! Additionally, there are many wonderful artifacts from many airlines. The highlight though may be hearing the stories on tours conducted by volunteers and ex-TWAers who were the folks who originally kept these aircraft in the air. Most know that Kansas City was the original maintenance base for TWA. A 30 minute drive from Kansas City International Airport, it is a must see attraction. Call ahead to see which planes are in as the Connie is active on the airshow circuit. Hangar 9, 201 NW Lou Holland Drive Kansas City, MO 64116 816.421.3401
