ZKC is continuting an event series called "Collegiate Aviation Series". ZKC airspace contains several collegiate aviation programs and we want to feature them in the form of events. We will be featuring 2 schools a month. The main focus of these events are to promote general aviation traffic within VATUSA. We would encourage you to fly your favorite general aviation aircraft. Whether it is practice approaches, VFR/IFR cross country flights, or pattern work, we got you covered!
This week we are featuring Hesston College. This program is based out of Newton County Airport (KEWK). The flight program at Hesston College uses the Cessna 172, Cessna 172RG, and Piper PA-30. You can expect services from Wichita Approach and Kansas City Center. Be advised that KEWK is an uncontrolled airport. Some good cross country destinations are KWLD, KANY, KPTT, KGBD, KCYW, KMHK, KEMP, and KCNU.
