Tuesday Treasures ~ Planes of Fame Air Airshow

Written by Menifee Buzz Staff

This week we are showcasing another local treasure ~ the Planes of Fame Air Museum in Chino. The air museum has a wide array of vintage planes from various eras, it has many events and the museum is open daily for tours

Their airshow is scheduled May 5-6 and it is a "must-see" for anyone who loves vintage planes:

Come experience the excitement! This year’s airshow will feature over 40 historic aircraft performing for your enjoyment as well as a salute to 1942, when U.S. military forces began turning the tide of WWII.

Planes of Fame Air Museum, in conjunction with the County of San Bernardino, is proud to present "Air Show 2012: Turning the Tide". We invite you to Air Show 2012 to commemorate this historical turning point defined by key events in WWII.

There will be panel discussions with our honored veterans. Check back often on our site for updates on the veterans who will participate and also view the Airshow 2012 video trailer. Also, be sure to catch the Airshow Preview Event.

This year we will have NASA’s Driven to Explore multi-media exhibit. Visitors will learn about space exploration through imagery and audio and visual technology and have an out-of-this-world opportunity to touch a 3 billion-year-old moon rock, so look for the exhibit!

A terrific selection of merchandise will be on sale in the Vendor Marketplace as well as delicious food and beverages. Reserved bleacher seating will be available; look for information under Ticket Information on the FAQ page of our site where you can purchase airshow tickets online as well. www.planesoffame.org
