Aircraft on display at McKinney National Airport

by | Oct 30, 2025 | Area news, Latest

A young visitor to McKinney National Airport takes the controls of a biplane during Display Day, Sunday, Oct. 26.

A youngster wore a t-shirt emblazoned “TKI.” When asked what that meant, he replied loudly, “Airport!”

He was one of the hundreds of area residents who visited McKinney National Airport for Display Day, an event allowing visitors onto the tarmac for a close-up look at aircraft parked there.

TKI actually does mean airport. It’s the Federal Aviation Administration designation for McKinney National, how undergoing a major expansion to enable passenger service late next year. The TKI stands for TexasmcKInney.
