![[4k] A Comprehensive Tour Of The Planes Of Fame Museum In Chino, Ca](/img/n.gif)
I grew up just a few miles from this museum. I used to love visiting, watching the air shows and having lunch with my family at Flow’s. I had the privilege of speaking with actual B-17 crew men, Wilbur and Carl. In my early twenties, back in 2009 I used to volunteer there on weekends. Love that place!
Thank you for sharing, a lot of people love this museum & airport, lot's of memories. Thank you Colin 😎👍
What I love about Planes of Fame is most of the aircraft aren't static, They fly!!
Yes it's really nice that you can watch these historic aircraft fly & they put on a fantastic airshow every year, thank you Mark 👍
Phantastic Museum with wonderful Planes and many Migs looks like new.
Thank you for watching, yes this museum is incredible and a lot the the aircraft or flight worthy 😎👍
Fantastic video. Great old birds!
Thank you very much for watching and a lot of them fly 👍😎
Ed, when it comes to video tours of air museums, you are the man.
Hello Steve, thank you for watching and for your nice comment 👍😎
What an amazing collection. I live in eastern England where most of the 8th Air Force was stationed in WW2. An area of our village is named after a B-17 that crashed on the village during the war. My great uncle was one of the youngest Squadron Leaders in the RAF in the war flying Spitfires; when I joined the army, a chap I was training with had a Finnish grandfather who was a high scoring ace with the Luftwaffe!! I wonder if they ever met??!
That's some pretty cool history on your great uncle, thank you for your service in the Army. Thank you for sharing and for watching :)
What a fantastic collection of aircraft. Love the P38's own private hangar. Exceptionally well filmed too. Regards from England
Thank you for your nice comment, greetings from the US 👍😎
Some very nice old birds, thank you very much!!!
Your welcome, yes they have some very historic & nice looking birds, thank you for your comment & for watching 👍
Ive been there today cause i love ww2 and ww1 and it was really cool how i got to see these warbirds that were restored i really enjoyed my time there
I'm so glad you had a good time, this museum is incredible and a lot of the planes fly. thank you for sharing your day and for watching 👍😎
While stationed at China Lake N.O.T.S., 1963-66 ish, i went to what was then named the Orange County Air Museum, saw what looks to be some of these planes there...the P-51D called "Spam Can" taxied by and gave us a small thrill!
Hello David. Thank you for your service, ya P-51 Spam Can is Planes of Fames P-51 and just one of several. Thank you for watching 👍😎
Those spots on the floor are where I walked around drooling! :)
LOL! That's a good one and I'm sure I added more spots on the floor. Thank you for watching and I hope you have a Happy New Year :)
Great video Ed I’m hoping to get out to visit the states to take in the museums in the next few years before I get to old😎
Thank you so much Ian, be safe and I hope you can get to the states, we have a lot to see 😎👍
The P-38 in this video named Skidoo used to be named JOLTIN JOSIE When I was 16 it passed through Courtesy Aircraft when I worked with the mechanic and that was the first warbird I ever washed. It was for sale at the time and the person who bought it gave me $200.00 John Castro Giovanni. I'll never forget him.
That's a great story of a very nice Man, thank you for sharing 👍😎
Gracias, fantástico video. Por un largo rato era yo quien caminaba entre los aviones admirando detalles de cada un de ellos. En verdad me transportó al museo.
Your welcome & glad you enjoyed.
An amazing collection of aircraft Thanks for tour
Thanks Michael for your comment & for watching. Happy New Year 👍
Thanks for the tour. Appreciate it.
Your very welcome and thank you for watching :)
They have a lot of great planes. Thanks.
Yes they sure do and a lot of them fly, thank you for watching :)
Amazing collection of aircraft !
And what's cool is a lot of these aircraft fly, thank you David for watching :)
Enjoyed the video Ed. I am lucky enough to be able to visit P.O.F. any time as I live in So. Cal. It looks like the A6M5 Zero must have been out of town when you shot your tour. One of the rarest planes in the collection along with the Northrope N9M flying wing witch you did get on film.. The staff at the museum is the best. I recommend the Flying History Day events the first Saturday each month. They feature an aircraft from the collection with a great presentation and usually get some old veteran pilots to speak of their time in the war effort. Great stuff. At the end of the program they will fire up the aircraft featured and fly it for the group that attends.
You said it perfect Matt. Yes the A6M5 Zero must of been out at a show. And I agree with everything you said I love this place and highly recommend people to see it. Take care & thank you again :)
Very sad to say, did you here about the Northrop N9M Flying Wing?
@@EdWhisenantAviation Tragedy.
Looks like a really cool place to visit, they definitely have a lot of interesting and unique aircraft on display!
+TheHDAviation Yes they do & a lot of the aircraft are flyable. Thanks so much for watching.
Ed Whisenant That's great they keep them in flying condition, that definitely makes it even more special.
looks great! thank u for making my quarantine better :)
Ya it's been a rough year so far, thank you for watching and I'm glad I was able to make your quarantine a little better 👍😎
Thankful that we out produced the Germans/Japanese or our world would be totally different. My dad was stationed at March Field 1930-40, and the "Peashooter" was the #1 fighter.
Leonard Chapman my uncle commanded a P-40 Squadron at March. They have a great museum too. They trained fighter pilots as replacements for Europe and the Pacific.
God Bless your Dad for his service & yes so glad we out produced for sure :)
Yes Iv'e been to the March Museum several times and I highly recommend it. I need to go again. Thank you for watching William :)
Absolutely amazing Aircraft collection....Just awesome....Thanks Ed for showing this all to us...Best wishes...Steve.-:)
+Steve Lewis Video Channel. Thanks so much Steve, Take care.
Very good video,well done.Multiple angles,not to fast.Gives old people a chance to remember numbers and names.Judging by what's outside the museum has their work cut out for them in a very nice way.👍
Thank you for watching and for your nice comment, ya pretty cool they have so much to work on, that's a good thing 👍
I have this as the Fourth best Air Museum in the country behind Dayton, OH, Air/Space, and Hazy Museum at Dulles. Really impressed by their collection and what they are working on behind closed doors.
I agree with you, I've been lucky enough to have gone to all of them and I'm a member of the Planes of Fame Air Museum. Thank you for watching :)
Ed Whisenant way cool!
soaringtractor That’s high on my list to get to
soaringtractor Can’t wait to go
Go to Nearby Yanks museum a mile from this place
Actually, the best Museum is the Pima Museum and boneyard!!
Pensacola has the best Naval Aviation museum
I went there in '97 whilst on holiday in the States - my first time over there.
Had a long chat with a Veteran who was sat in the shade underneath the wing of the B17
Wilbur Richardson, ball turret gunner - he had a set of photos showing the demise of another B17 which drifted off course and was underneath his at the bomb release.
Took one of the horizontal stabilisers clean off and it went down.
He liked the T-shirt I was wearing - ' 100 BG Thorpe Abbotts' and he told me he was stationed not far from there.
It was an honour to meet him.
Princess Diana was killed a few days later and I ended up queuing behind Shania Twain in a coffee shop in the Mirage a few days after that. I asked her about the value of the coins I had in my hand - it was my first visit.
I didn't know who she was, being from England where there's no Country music.
She said that we had both just lost somebody dear - I was confused until I realised she was Canadian and was talking about Diana. I had just lost my Dad, which was slightly more important but I just agreed without mentioning it.
She explained what a dime was and counted my change to make sure I had enough for a cup of Joe.
She sure was pretty.
Later on, back in England I saw the cover of 'Come On Over' and the penny dropped. You don't forget a face like that!
I love that you shared that with me, it's always nice to here different stories & memories. I sure hope you enjoyed your visit over here in the states. Thank you again for sharing and for watching. Take care Red.
@@EdWhisenantAviation You're welcome. I loved visiting America BC (Before Children).
We were married in Las Vegas and I managed to fit in a tour of Nelllis AFB whilst there and have twice visited the Alamo (where I was amazed and proud to see a St George's Cross hanging in there).
Did a tour of the Blue Ghost in Corpus Christie too - boy was it hot there!
I love my military history - we, of course, have plenty of it in England, particularly aviation.
Check out the video on here of the upcoming Flying Legends 2020 at Duxford,
it will give you goosebumps.
We go every year, it's the airfield from where Douglas Bader flew his Big Wing during the Battle Of Britain.
Last year they had on display an original model of the Eder dam - which was used to familiarise the Dambuster crews with the topography.
It has a superb American Air Museum and it's not far from Madingley where there is a US cemetery for 8th AF boys.
I believe it's actually designated US 'soil'.
@@gibson617ajg I enjoyed reading your comment, I always watch the Flying Legends videos on UA-cam and follow some UA-camrs from that area and they follow my channel also. I was at the airport yesterday and saw a P-51 flying around and that gave me goosebumps I would sure love to visit one year, we have the Planes of Fame Airshow every year and they fly approx. 50 WWII aircraft but they canceled it do to the Covid-19 Virus. Stay safe and I enjoyed talking to you.
@@EdWhisenantAviation I suspect that Flying Legends will get cancelled too - everything is over here.
Before I go here's a fun fact for you.
I live a mile away from a former aerodrome in a town in Robin Hood country - . Rolls-Royce have a facility there, and have had since the First World War.
This is the place where they first fitted the Merlin to the P-51 airframe!
I grew up watching the Rolls-Royce Spitfire (they still operate it) doing impromptu displays over our house prior to the season starting and is the reason why I am still obsessed with Piston engined aircraft.
The runway is still there but the site is succumbing to house building - the runway is still used by the BBMF as a waypoint to displays during the summer.
Every summer weekend we get a low flypast of either a Lancaster, Spitfire, Hurricane or Dakota (or a combination) as they make their way to a display.
Nice conversing with you.ll
@@gibson617ajg Your very lucky that you live that close & really cool that you possibly could see a Lancaster, Spitfire, Hurricane or Dakota (or a combination) Iv'e seen them all but haven't seen a Lancaster fly in person 😢 Sorry about the possible cancellation of the Flying Legends but our safety is number one, I'm bummed out that our airshows got canceled. Take care and yes it was nice conversing with you 👍
I was at that museum in the mid 80s and it's nice to see a lot of the same planes there. Now they are twice the age they were when I saw them last but they look just as good. There was a real ME-262 there when I was there, it looks like it's gone now.
I took a lot of photos and video tape..
Yes the Me-262 was sold in 2000 to Mr. Paul Allen (co-founder of Microsoft Corporation)
Damn him, first he buys the Lost in Space Robot and now the ME-262.
That's what BIG MONEY can buy you. LOL
Well at least he can't buy my memories...or can he?
Ed Whisenant If memory serves me right, he also bought the Mitsubishi Betty bomber that was part of a display at the museum to restore to flying status. Imagine seeing that flying with the A6M5 Zero alongside.
Great job videoing. Thank you
Thank yo so much & thank you for watching 👍
Will never forget seeing the “dragon and it’s tail” b24 at chino.
Oh ya back when they had it as Dragon and it's Tail, I flew in it when they changed it to Witchcraft.
Thank you for posting, enjoyed it.
Your welcome Jeffrey and glad you enjoyed. Thank you for watching. Take care :)
Have you heard of Pima Air and Space Museum in Tucson, Arizona? They have 400 aircraft spread out over a lot of land and it is really really cool I have been there twice.
Yes and Thank you I have only been once and I would love to go back again & I would recommend for sure😎👍
Impressive museum! They have the only flying Mitsubishi Zero that is 99% accurate to the originals (except the carburetors). Their vintage English collection s also impressive with the Old Gloster Meteor, Vampire. My dad told me that he had the opportunity to fly these at the end of WWII when he was flying for the RCAF but he could barely fit into them.
They are best known for their restorations... especially P-51's & P-38's. They also had a Me 262 Nazi jet fighter that they were restoring that got sold to someone. They also had an Me 163 Komet that wasn't in flying condition... probably not the greatest idea to try to fly one since they killed many German pilots on landing on a single skid.
I highly recommend this museum and their annual air show where you get to see many vintage war birds flying over a two day period.
Thank you for your nice comment and how cool was that, your Dad flew for the RCAF. Yes a big must see the POF Airshow & Museum. Thank you so much 👍😎
The 262 was sold to Paul Allen in the 80s. The Me 163 Moment is actually static replica
I will visit museum with friend.
That will be great, you will enjoy it. Have fun :)
For anyone close enough, definitely check this place out. The ticket is a fraction of the price of the san diego air and space museum and has twice as much to look at. The only reason to go to the space museum is they have a PBY catalina
Thanks so much Eric for watching and your comment. I recommend both museums but whats really cool about Planes of Fame museum is how many airplanes fly and they fly often, also they have so many pilots and staff that will talk to you and answer questions. Planes of Fame I Highly recommend going to and they have a Excellent Airshow every year.
They really made this a polished museum since I was there in the 1990’s - only things from then I don’t see now are the Tora Tora Japanese plane fleet and the Douglas A2D Skyshark. Am curious about the outdoor F-100 and the story behind the damage that must be from a missile hit.
And another video!
+Airplane Guy Yes Sir, thanks for watching.
This a great museum, and you did a very good job of recording it. Liked!
+99carnot Thanks so much, I'm not a pro by any means but I sure have fun.
Yes - that is the main thing for me also:)
A superb collection. Thanks for posting. Is that a 'Suzie' at 4:03 ? I didn't know there were any still in existence. I especially like the 'between the Wars' fighters, from the P-26 to the Seversky. All pretty rare birds i would imagine.
Thanks so much Tim for watching, is that what they call it Suzie? Yes they have a great collection.
It’s a Judy. Not airworthy but engine runs and aircraft can be taxied.
At 4:03 it's actually a D4Y3 Judy
Nice 🇬🇧
Thank you Dale 👍
Do any of the P-51’s and the P-38 Lightning fly?
Great question, yes they do fly, I flew in the P-51 & my friend flew in the P-38 👍😎
While I love seeing these old war relics... there's a part of me that sees wasted money and lives that may have been used for better things. There was a time when I thought I wanted to be an Air Force fighter pilot... I began to realize I wanted the joy ride but didn't want to be part of the killing mission. thanks for sharing
Hello BJ, thank you for watching and for sharing how you feel.
id love to go here some day, unfortunately being in canada bc it's far and expensive, being In canada there isnt many military museums unlike the states, would love to check out there zero! im a huge zero enthusiast :)
18:23 May be a highly modified parasite jet fighter designed to launch/recapture from under a B-52 on its way to Moscow. Maybe.
Could be, it definitely has a hook. Thank you for your comment & for watching 👍
It's a Republic RF-84K 'Thunderflash'. One of 25 modified for aerial hook-up to B-36 bombers.
@@FPSHungary1337 Awesome thank you for the information, WOW! B-36 I wish I could have seen one flying in person.
@@EdWhisenantAviation Yes indeed I can only imagine the airshow every day the people living next to the bases must have witnessed when B--36's flew over their houses
@@FPSHungary1337 I would have loved it 😎
Wow. Is that a Ryan Fireball at 8:33 ? Can't be many of those knocking around these days,.
It's the only one left in the world
Tim Richardson my tour guide from there even told me that
I have been to the Chino Museum, and many air shows there in the past, wonderful place. I was wondering about your name because I have an old Navy shipmate named Jim Whisnant. We served together on the USS Helena heavy cruiser in the 1950's. Any relation to you? My name is Lee Coffman.
First off Thank you for your service & thank you for watching. The Planes of Fame Airshow is coming up on May 5th & 6th. I never herd of a Jim Whisenant.
good video
Thank you Darren 👍
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son in that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life John 3:16
Amen 👍
so God gave them a FockeWulf 190
I’m working on an edit of this air museum. May I please use footage from this video?
If you want to do the home work, I think you are allowed to use so many seconds if you edit what you need, Please give me some credit LOL PS Thank you for asking 👍😎
Dialogue of aircraft type would be nice!
Would be nice but would take me a lot of time and I have before and got complaints that I did a dialogue of aircraft type, people didn't want to see all that. Thank you for watching and for your comment :)
Victor Palamar a chocolate milk shake would be nice
Nice old earoplane thinks
Thank you for watching.
Some narration to say what i was looking at would have been expected.
Sorry Gregory, I have tried narration before and people don't like that. I apologize for just now seeing your comment, for some reason I don't receive all of my comments through Gmail, it seems to be an on going problem with UA-cam. Take care, stay safe and I hope you have a good New Year.
Nice place to store a few warbirds. I quit visiting California in 2006, it became very unfriendly to trucks
Thank you for watching Walter. California is changing very fast and becoming unfriendly with so many things, a real shame.
Was that a British built P-51 with Rolls Royce Merlin engine?, sorry didn’t have sound on
Hello Sean, that I know of it was built in the USA, thank you for watching 👍😎
@@EdWhisenantAviation unusual for American built planes to have Rolls Royce engines?
@@seanclark6438 Hello Sean, ya both of the P-51D's were manufactured in Dallas, TX USA, I'm sure they must have added the Rolls Royce engines years later.
@@EdWhisenantAviation cool, thanks
@@EdWhisenantAviation thanks Ed
only 14 BIZ is missing in this museum
Santos Drummond 🇧🇷
Ya, I don't think they have one of these, thank you for checking it out David 😎👍
Got some one of planes
Thank you for watching :)
0:17 😮
You like at 0:17 👍😎
A few years ago, I saw a photo of an old aircraft that is parked outside. It does not appear to be in flying condition. I am trying to identify this aircraft, and its location. Four engine, piston, with a cartoon ghost painted on the nose. Any ideas?
Probably the B-17 Flying Fortress that they are restoring.
a museum that needs a boatload of money
Yup! that's for sure. Thank you for watching :)
I believe the Yellow flying wing was in a fatal crash not to long ago.
Yes the Northrop N9MB Flying Wing crashed on 04/22/2019. Here is my video ua-cam.com/video/7I8DAhtNv7w/v-deo.html
could someone identify the planes shown by name and number
Thank you very much for watching James, I am sorry I don't have the time right now.
I visited there in 97
It's sad that the little yellow Northrop flying wing crashed and got totally destroyed. It was the last existing example.
Yes Jesse, very sad.
109 😍
Thank you for watching 👍
18:38 Aha!
Is that your favorite?
Is that the Flying Wing that was destroyed in a crash? Such a terrible loss of plane and pilot.
Yes unfortunately that was the Flying Wing that was destroyed, very sad one of a kind aircraft and I feel so sorry for the pilots family & friends.
I will never forget having a conversation with the museum founder Ed Maloney next to the P-26 and one of the things we were discussing was how the Democrats have destroyed the aircraft manufacturing industry in California as I am a former Douglas Aircraft employee.
RIP Ed
Ya and just think of all those aircraft companies willingly would have stepped to the plate and made the ventilators in a heart beat during this Covid -19 crisis. Yes Ed was an amazing man & thank god we have the Hinton's carrying on the tradition.
I thought Boeing did it?
There is no covid-19..it's a Democratic Hoax..
Will get there when this virus is gone
You will not be disappointed, thank you for watching & be safe 😎👍
Most Famous plane in the World? ME-109
Great Aircraft, thank you for watching Magnus 😎👍
Por un momento pensé que tenían miedo de mostrar una svastica. Me mostraron muchos aviones alemanes !!! (Sarcasmo)

The bombers need to get out in the barn
They are working on it, thank you for watching :)
I like the work.
But I truly can't understand wrong paint shemes.
I mean 15:45 for example.
Every marking sreams "I am wrong here", especially the swastika.
I'm not sure on this airplane but a lot of these aircraft have been donated or purchased as is over the years and they have so many aircraft that it's very hard to go through all of these and restore 100% via Man/Woman power and the extreme cost. They have a lot of aircraft that are restored and in flying condition and that is really expensive to maintain so a lot of the other planes are on the backburner. I appreciate your comment & thank you for watching 😎👍
When I am old I will come over to paint that Heinkel unsalaried. ^^
