Yank Air Museum in Chino concentrates on American planes with many historically significant examples and there are over 190 planes on display. The planes are restored on the premise and you can go through the remonstration area and also the outside bone yard. Yanks has master craftsmen who restore using accurate materials.

The bone yard was really interesting to see up close how thin the skins are on modern aircraft yet the floors of a commercial jet lined are very string. They are made of a honeycomb material. I have been to a number of aircraft museums here in Southern California and fond this to be one of the best and most interesting ones.
