Planes of Fame will be flying their P-26 for the last time over the skies of Chino this Saturday March 07, 2026. It is going to be trucked up to the new facility in Santa Maria in the near future but they are giving the public one last chance to see the Peashooter in the skies over what has been its home for 53 years.

Hangar Talk and Flight of the Boeing P-26 ‘Peashooter’, Saturday, March 7, 2026, at 10:30am.

Don’t Miss This Final Performance as the Boeing P-26A “Peashooter” Makes Her Last Flight Over Chino

Planes of Fame Air Museum is proud to present the Flight of the Boeing P-26A “Peashooter” at our Monthly Event this Saturday, March 7, 2026. The world’s only flying P-26A, this international treasure will be making her final scheduled flight over the skies of Chino. In the coming months, she’ll be moved to her new home at the Museum’s Santa Maria location.

Doors to the Museum open at 9:00am and Members are always admitted FREE!

“Hangar Talk” will kick-off at 10:30am with some outstanding presentations and at 12:15pm, directly in front of the crowd, the Peashooter will fire up her mighty-little 600-horsepower Pratt & Whitney Wasp radial engine. This is a chance to see history take to the skies on Saturday, March 7, 2026 so we hope to see you all at the Museum.
