The Outreach Aircraft allows KUMC professionals a multitude of opportunities for participation in KU sponsored activities and for connecting with their counterparts around Kansas. In addition, the aircraft provides rural residents with increased access to medical care by bringing specialists to various locations statewide. Furthermore, Outreach Aircraft is a means for providing advanced levels of health care education to rural communities.
