About Us
Welcome to Our Community!
At the heart of our essence is one unifying word: Community. Our community isn’t just about sharing a common space; it’s about a shared, deep-seated passion for Grumman planes—a unity forged from the joy of flying, maintaining, and celebrating these remarkable aircraft.
Who We Are
We are more than just a group; we are a collective of Grumman owners and enthusiasts. We live and breathe Grumman aircraft. Whether it’s flying them across the clear sky, fixing them with meticulous care, or simply sharing stories of our aerial adventures, our love for these planes knows no bounds. We believe in spreading this passion and involving everyone who shares this zeal, making our community richer and more vibrant, one member at a time.
Our Mission
Remember the thrill of flying? The joy of sharing your passion with like-minded individuals? That’s what we’re all about! Our goal is to foster an all-inclusive support network that transcends the concept of a traditional club. We stand united, leaving behind any past rivalries, notably with GOPA. Our focus is on unity, support, and, most importantly, FUN!
What We Offer
- Events and Fly-Ins: Members have the freedom to host fly-ins, sharing their experiences through photos and stories on our website, further spreading the word about the Grumman community.
- Resources and Support: With Grumman Parts at the helm of our website, accessing parts has never been easier. Managed by Jeff Johnson, we assure you of the best deals and superior service from trusted suppliers, without the competition.
- Learning and Sharing: Roscoe Roche’s YouTube Channel, ‘Grumman Pilots’, is a treasure trove of maintenance videos. Meanwhile, ‘Bondline’ offers a platform for articles and photos, and the ‘Grumman Gang’ facilitates the exchange of messages and information, cementing our place as the social glue of the Grumman enthusiasts’ world.
- Legacy and Humor: Inspired by Jim Bede’s unique sense of humor, we carry the ‘Grumman Line’ with pride, embodying the spirit and magic that is distinctively Grumman.
Whether you’re a Grumman aficionado, a flying enthusiast, or someone intrigued by the world of aviation, our doors are always open. Dive into a community where your passion for planes is shared, celebrated, and nurtured. We are Grumman, and our magic is strong!
