The Kansas Aviation Museum’s annual gala, called “Fly Me to the Moon,” will have a different look and atmosphere from galas of the past. It won’t include a dry chicken dinner or a boring speaker, said Lon Smith, Kansas Aviation Museum executive director.
“Our whole gala … over the past couple of years has been transforming into a completely different form of event,” Smith said.
This year’s gala will feature an induction ceremony for national aerobatics champion pilot Joyce Case James into the Kansas Aviation Museum Hall of Fame and a brief presentation by Bombardier Learjet, the event’s sponsor, to celebrate its 50th anniversary of the Learjet.
