Planes of Fame Air Museum
14998 Cal Aero Drive, Chino, CA 91710
Founded by Edward T. Maloney on 12th January 1957, initially in Claremont, California, the Planes of Fame Air Museum houses historically important aircraft with several in airworthy condition. With their main base now established at Chino Airport, the museum's mission is "to preserve aviation history, inspire an interest in aviation, educate the public, and honor aviation pioneers and veterans".
