SEDGWICK COUNTY —Kansas Highway Patrol Troopers assisted with the escort of a B1-Bomber through Kansas on Saturday.

The bomber made it safely to the National Institute for Aviation Research at Wichita State University.

The institute's centers promote the safety, research, manufacturing and design elements of today’s aviation industry, according to their website. They strengthen airworthiness assurance in the short and long term. "They make the concerns of the general aviation industry their own. And they make dreams of composite-made airplanes reality. This happens not only through NIAR’s own research, but through the exchange of knowledge with researchers in other centers."
