The Travel Air Restorers Association (TARA) is an independent, nonprofit organization, formed in 1990, dedicated to the preservation of Travel Air aircraft, their history, engineering drawings, related artifacts, photographs and documentation with the objective to keep these aircraft flying for today's and future generations to enjoy and appreciate. To this end TARA will seek to promote the exchange of information and data among it's members and the public through it's newsletter, it's website and through both national and regional Fly-In's.

Time for a Change
The December 2015 Travel Air Log newsletter will be the last from me for while. I have enjoyed running TARA for the last 25 years and it is now time to turn the reins over to someone else. I have asked a few people about their interest to take over but as of now that person has not come forward. Phil Wyels after doing it for many years wants someone to do the Membership Chairman task as doing the drawings and membership is too much for him. The task includes receiving all the dues checks and updating the membership and mailing lists and then mailing the checks to the Treasurer. To date no one has volunteered for this position... I don't want to do it also. Eric Berens has volunteered to be Treasurer which is great but more help is needed. I hope to take this time to do improvements to our website which is another task I have been over seeing with the web master. The bottom line is don't send in any dues for next year and if you have paid for more then 2015 you will receive a refund if requested. What money we have after a planned donation to the Kansas Aviation Museum for a Travel Air display will be used to upgrade the website. If you would like to be our membership chairman or president please let me know. Do continue to send address, phone and e-mail address changes so that I can send out special notices when needed. Let's keep in touch and let's continue to keep the Travel Air's flying! |
