Planes of Fame Air Museum was founded
by Mr. Ed Maloney in Claremont, California on January 12, 1957. At that
time it was called "The Air Museum," as there was no need to be
specific, because no other air museums existed in the U.S. west of the
Mississippi River!
The original collection
consisted of just 10 airplanes; the collection has now grown to over 150
aircraft, of which over 50 can still fly. A number of aircraft on display
at the Planes of Fame Air Museum today are the sole surviving examples of their
type. They exist only because a young Ed Maloney remembered the words of
General "Hap" Arnold who instructed the Air Force to save at least one
example of many different aircraft as possible to create a national museum.
This inspired Mr. Maloney to commit himself to the same goal, and
aircraft Museum visitors can enjoy planes that still exist because his personal
determination over more than 59 years!
Mr. Maloney didn't think it
was enough to just display static aircraft in a museum, he wanted to create a
flying museum; an idea that he pioneered.
As the Museum's collection
began to grow, it became necessary to find a new home with enough space to
house more aircraft. In 1963, it relocated to nearby Ontario Airport in
Ontario, California. A few years later, in 1970, the non-flyable aircraft
became part of the "Movie World: Cars of the Stars and Planes of Fame
Museum" in Buena Park, California, located near Knott's Berry Farm.
At the same time the flyable aircraft relocated to Chino Airport.
When Movie World closed, the name "Planes of Fame" stayed,
since it perfectly described Ed Maloney's museum.
This year Museum celebrated
its 60th Anniversary with an ongoing commitment to enabling generations of
Museum visitors to experience the sights and sounds of aircraft that otherwise
would have been lost to history.
