"As sands of the hourglass so are the days of our lives." (Socrates). It is regrettable that  many of our members have flown West. With the reduction in membership, the Board of Directors of RNPA.org has made the decision for the web site to "fly west" as of September 30th, 2025. 

The Notam Section and Forum will continue to inform you of significant news that require immediate attention until that time.

We will continue to update the Memoriam Flown West directories. The Obit section will cease showing new obits as of June 15th 2025 .  Obits after June 15, 2025 can be found on the Delta web site with a link to their Obits section along with the protocle for submitting obits in the obits Section

Contrails magazine has been at the forefront of RNPA news. Created by the talented Gary Ferguson, it has been an awaited event throughout the years.   In the passing of eContrails, to those who wish to read and/or print this final issue, click on the following link RNPA 50 years
