The Combat Air Museum is just a day trip from Kansas City and you can see aircraft from World War I. Visitors to the Museum are often treated with flying activities from the Air Force fighter planes and Army helicopters. You’ll often catch some of the largest planes the military has to offer at the Museum as they stop to refuel their engines.
