TAKE A TRIP TO THE AMELIA EARHART HANGAR MUSEUM
IN ATCHISON, KANSAS

KS – Did you know that there’s an Amelia Earhart museum in Kansas? The Amelia Earhart Hangar Museum in Atchison, Kansas, officially opened in 2023. Eventually, the museum hopes to have a 4,000 foot runway that’s 75 feet wide, but for now, visitors should plan to land at nearby airports, like Rosecrans Memorial Airport in St. Joseph, MO and the Horton Municipal Airport in Horton, KS. From those airports, it’s just a short drive into Atchison, where you can create memories at the museum and enjoy a day or weekend in a town that was founded in 1854, 34 years before Amelia was born.

AIRCRAFT HANGAR FIRES – WHAT EVERY HANGAR
OWNER/OPERATOR SHOULD KNOW

GLOBAL: The Presence of Flammable Materials
Dangerous and costly aircraft hangar fires and flames can quickly ignite for several main reasons. This includes but is not limited to the presence of highly flammable materials, electrical system malfunctions, or certain mechanical defects. One frequently encountered cause of these blazes is the dreaded fuel spill or leaks that occur during refueling or maintenance.
