Mission Statement

Aircraft Restoration Association is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization dedicated to teaching future generations of aviation mechanics, pilots, and enthusiasts how to maintain and operate different kinds of aircraft. Any sort of donation or partnership formed for ARA will be used towards supplying parts for aircraft and opportunities for members to expand their network and knowledge. While ARA was founded in Southern Illinois, we have the intent to form other branches at any aviation institute willing to join us in our mission.
