Combat Air Museum

The Combat Air Museum has served as an educational institution and tourism destination for forty seven years. It is one of a handful of major aviation museums in the United States located on an active air field. Visitors to our Museum are regularly treated to flying activities of Air Force fighter aircraft and Army helicopter operations. With the longest runway in the State of Kansas, large refueling tanker aircraft of the Kansas Air National Guard and army troop transports often fill the skies around the Museum. The Museum’s “Young Aviators” classes and Girls In Aviation Day offer students and Girl Scouts a unique opportunity to be immersed in the midst of a museum covering aviation history from the earliest days of flight to the present day.

Paint the Parkway Pink

Our Mission…

Teresa Majewski lost the battle with Breast Cancer when she was only 34. She passed away in October 1993. Her family has decided to help by having an awareness walk here in her hometown of St Joseph, MO. They promised Teresa that they would do everything they could to decrease the amount of people that have to go through what she did.

In memory of Teresa Majewski, we will be Painting the Parkway Pink to raise money for Breast cancer research.
