These appear to be two different locations. Anyone know for sure?


100% sure these are two different locations. No mountains within sighting distance in the Oletha, KS area.

Yes, Executive is the old NAS. I believe the gull grey Corsair is also an Olathe reserve aircraft. Can't remember BuNo, but I've got it somewhere.

Are you saying that Executive Airport once was the Olathe Naval Air Station? Never heard that. When?

Yes, the CAF uses one of the original hangers...I believe. If you go to their site ( http://www.kcghostsquadron.org ) there is a brief history and a nice article about Kansas Naval Air Stations, including Olathe.
