Kansas City Downtown Airport, also known as Charles B. Wheeler Downtown Airport, is an airport in Kansas City, Missouri, Clay County, Missouri. Its IATA Airport Code is MKC.
This airport was Kansas City's first, and was dedicated in 1927 by Charles Lindbergh. Until 1972 (when Kansas City International Airport opened), Downtown was Kansas City's home for commercial aviation. Today, the airport is used chiefly for corporate and recreational aviation. Its location just north of the downtown business center provides excellent highway access.
It is home to the Airline History Museum.
