Education Center Naming
In honor of Don Beets generous donation to the Wing we have named the museum after his late wife Janet Beets.

As part of the naming we have added “Education Center” to the museum to better reflect the mission of the CAF and our Wing. 
9/11 Flyovers
Several of our Wing members were directly involved with events as they unfolded on September 11 th , 2001 .
On Wednesday, September 11, 2019, our Stearman participated in two memorial flyovers. The first destination was the "Red, White and Blue Veteran's Golf Benefit" held at the Staley Farms Golf Course. On the return flight after the flyover, our planes were vectored directly over midfield MCI for traffic spacing.
After a quick refuel the second flyover was of the Patriot Run at the Nazarene College in Olathe .

More Wing Stickers have Arrived
We have received more Wing Stickers. These are great on vehicles, airplanes, notebooks and more! They can be used indoors or outdoors!

Stickers are $2.00 each. Please see anyone on staff to buy your stash!


Watch for more Wing updates.

Stay informed. Get engaged!
