Warbirds in Chino, CA

Mon Feb 27, 2006 10:41 am

A friend of mine has a day to spend on a layover in Chino next week and I wanted to ask you all besides Planes of Fame, who else is there to see @ KCNO?

TIA,

Lynn

Square One used to be in Chino, but is no more now. There are a few aircraft dealers and privately owned airframes there. I'll let the locals fill you in.

...and the Museum at March AFB in Riverside is only a short drive away from Chino as well.

Have your friend get there early to have Breakfast at Flo's Cafe...just to get his head "aviation straight" before touring the aircraft.
