Aerial America: Kansas

There's more to the state of Kansas than its wide-open spaces and endless skies might indicate. It's where great aviation pioneers took flight and civil rights heroes fought back. Where Laura Ingalls Wilder documented life on the prairie and a fictional young girl dreamed of a life "Over the Rainbow." It's also home of the first battle of the Civil War and the ongoing collegiate basketball war between Wildcats and Jayhawks. Enjoy this soaring tour through the spectacular and surprising Sunflower State.
