Edward T. Maloney (May 21, 1928 – August 19, 2016) was an American aviation historian based in Southern California. He assembled much of the collection of historic airframes displayed at the Planes of Fame Museum at Chino Airport, Chino, California. Maloney believed that today's scrap is tomorrow's history, and in 1946 began collecting odd airframes for a future museum. His first item was reportedly a Mitsubishi J8M rocket-powered interceptor.

  • Edward T. Maloney (May 21, 1928 – August 19, 2016) was an American aviation historian based in Southern California. He assembled much of the collection of historic airframes displayed at the Planes of Fame Museum at Chino Airport, Chino, California. Maloney believed that today's scrap is tomorrow's history, and in 1946 began collecting odd airframes for a future museum. His first item was reportedly a Mitsubishi J8M rocket-powered interceptor. Maloney opened his first aviation museum at Claremont, California, on January 12, 1957, and then moved to LA/Ontario International Airport, Ontario, California, in the 1960s. His collection included several military aircraft including a rare P-26 Peashooter, a P-51A, a Hanriot HD.1, a Heinkel He 162, the Northrop N9M flying wing testbed, the nose section of a B-36 Peacemaker bomber. It also includes the last B-17 Flying Fortress bomber in United States Air Force operation, the drone-director Piccadilly Lilly II (44-83684). This B-17 starred in the 12 O'Clock High television series from 1964 to 1966. Interactive displays included a vintage World War II gunnery training machine. In 1969, Maloney was forced to move his collection from the Ontario Airport hangar, and chose its present location at Chino Airport. Maloney remained active in the preservation of aviation history until he died from colon cancer on August 19, 2016, aged 88. (en)
