Welcome to the
TARPA web site. Let us explain who we are, and what we do. WHO
- Membership in TARPA is open to ALL
previous TWA flight deck crewmembers
and retired TWA pilots. This includes all predecessor
airlines. Our 1,800 members range from young current TWA/AA pilots to some who flew Ford Tri-Motors in the ‘30s. WHAT
- TARPA was founded in 1979 by retired TWA pilots who wanted to create
an organization to provide a social, recreational, non-profit entity
with a primary goal of helping members maintain friendships formed while
flying for TWA, and to assist pilots nearing retirement with the
transition to the new life.
HOW
- We offer several ways to reach our objectives. First, we publish a
world class; widely acclaimed magazine “TARPA TOPICS” It is produced
three times a year. TARPA TOPICS contains stories about members’
current and past activities, stories about TWA and industry issues and
updates on TARPA activities. We also publish a membership directory
yearly with addresses, Email and telephone numbers of all members and
subscribers. Second, perhaps most important, TARPA convenes an annual
gathering in various cities around the country. Our conventions are open
to all previous TWA pilots and provides the opportunity to get up close and
personal. We routinely have around 400 people in attendance, members,
spouses and guests. Third, we offer this webpage with timely updates on
all TARPA news and links to numerous other useful sites. ANNUAL
TARPA CONVENTION All previous TWA pilots and their spouses are welcome.
TARPA
is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of six Executive Officers
and three Directors. There are
twelve committees to provide assistance and suggestions to the Board of
Directors. This is a brief introduction of TARPA. For additional information email TARPA President Guy Fortier at guy4ta@msn.com Replace your homepage with our "links" page.
