There have been recent reports in aviation-related media suggesting that Chino, California-based Planes of Fame Air Museum is considering moving its stellar fleet of airworthy historical artifacts to the Lincoln Regional/Karl Harder Field in Lincoln, California, just north of Sacramento. And with the difficulties the museum has had with its neighbors at the Chino Airport related to its annual Planes of Fame Airshow these reports appear plausible.
Planes of Fame Staying in Chino
Key Takeaways:
- Despite recent reports suggesting a full relocation, the Planes of Fame Air Museum is confirmed to be staying in Chino, California, but is exploring the possibility of expanding to a second location, possibly Lincoln, in the coming years due to its growing collection.
- The museum is planning significant upgrades and new exhibits at its Chino facility, including a Korean War Memorial, a permanent Goodyear Blimp gondola spot, enhanced digital and VR experiences, and an expanded STEM education curriculum.
- Planes of Fame will host its annual airshow in May (despite a pending lawsuit) and 17 other events this year, predominantly "Living History Flying Days" featuring demonstration flights of iconic historical aircraft.
