The International Loran Association is formed to provide an organization for individuals who have common interest in Loran and who wish to foster and preserve the art of Loran, to promote the exchange of ideas and information in the field of Loran, to recognize the advances and contributions to Loran, to document the history of Loran, and to commemorate fittingly the memory of fellow members. The Association was originally named after the majestic Canada Goose that navigates thousands of miles with unerring accuracy. Its membership represents many interests including those of planners, promoters, designers, and users of loran equipment throughout the world.
