North American Trainer Association

The North American Trainer Association (NATA) is an independent, non-profit corporation dedicated to the restoration and safe flying of North American Trainers such as the AT-6/SNJ/Harvard, NA-64, NA-50, TB-25, TF-51, AND T-28 aircraft.

Membership currently includes the majority of owners of these aircraft in the USA (over 500 flyable T-6's the US), many Canadian owner/pilots as well as those from other countries, and photographers and historians. Membership is open to all enthusiasts.

In 1987 a formation program was started and has expanded to cover virtually all organizations who have members flying warbirds. They have joined together in a
group known as FAST (Formation and Safety Team). Exhaustive training has enabled them to present a exhilarating picture of aviation's past to the millions of spectators attending today's many national and international air shows.

NATA publishes NATA Skylines (60-page magazine with color) quarterly in Jan, Apr, Jul. Oct. The wealth of information about the NAA aircraft, maintenance and formation training/flying, and related events makes it a valuable network for owners, pilots and their crews. Nearly all magazine content is submitted by the membership.
