“I’m with dummy.”
That’s the name of the opportunity to have your picture taken with one of the crash dummies at Wichita State University’s National Institute for Aviation Research’s crash lab. It will be held Friday, May 1, from 9 a.m. until noon.
It’s part of an open house at NIAR and WSU’s College of Engineering that runs from 9 a.m. until 7 p.m. Several labs will be open to the public to tour.
Photos will be held in Room 102 on the first floor of NIAR for a suggested donation of $1. The money will go to the United Way’s Laid-Off Workers Fund.
Wichita pilots plan to take part in a fly-in at the Greensburg airport on Saturday, May 2. The fly-in is sponsored by the Kansas Pilots Association and is open to the public.
If the weather is bad, they’ll drive over for the event.
A variety of airplanes will be on display beginning at 11 a.m. Free airplane rides will be available for children ages 7 to 17. A barbecue lunch will be served beginning at noon.
Proceeds will go to Greensburg Rebuilding fund, said Ken Johnson, an organizer of the event.
