Wichita Mid-Continent Airport

Wichita Mid-Continent Airport, is a commercial airport in Wichita, Kansas USA. It is the largest airport in the state of Kansas.

Wichita Mid-Continent Airport was first conceived in 1951 when the United States Air Force brought legal proceedings to condemn and acquire the Wichita Municipal Airport for what was to become McConnell Air Force Base. Wichita's park board quickly acquired 1,923 acres (7.8 km²) of land in southwest Wichita and the construction of a new "Wichita Municipal Airport" took about three and a half years. The new airport was dedicated on October 31, 1954, and was renamed Wichita Mid-Continent Airport in 1973.
