In Nov 2013 a Boeing 747 Dreamlifter cargo plane (special 747 cargo plane built by Boeing to fly large aircraft assemblies, wings etc, from Boeing factory to Boeing factory) landed at the wrong airport.

Boeing 747 LCF N780BA lands at Jabara Airport instead of McConnell AFB. Operated by Atlas Air. Aircraft takes off from 6100 foot runway without incident. Headed for original destination.

I remember that Dreamlifter in Wichita. They had to close a local road near the end of the runway when the plane took off because of the fear the jet wash would blow a passing car off the road.
