Have never flown into MKC. I used to work at 8th & Washington and watch the planes land and take off from there all day. Flown into Johnson County Executive and Lees Summit, but never the downtown airport.
Gonna change that now--and can't wait to do it. There is no place like Kansas City on a Saturday before a home Chiefs game at Arrowhead.

i flew into the river/downtown airport quite a few times in 1967...
try landing in that sucker in a real airliner, graze the bluff, drop like a rock towards the river, lurch onto the landing strip, hit the brakes as hard as possible before running off the end of the runway that looked only slightly longer than my driveway...
fun times...
