Founded by Loren Bump in 1975, the Continental Luscombe Association is a non-profit organization dedicated to the flying, preservation, and enjoyment of Luscombe airplanes.

In the early 1990s the CLA was at a crossroads: Loren Bump was unable to continue as leader, due to medical issues, so Gordy Birse, Art Moxley, and Doug Clough took the reins, in order that the CLA would survive. Survive is not the correct adjective: thrive is a better description; membership climbed significantly under their leadership. In 2003 these gentlemen turned leadership over to a board of elected directors, who guide the club today.

Through our newsletter, The Luscombe Courant, our annual Gathering of Luscombes at Columbia, California, and such other organized and impromptu events as our membership may contrive, we aim to strengthen the bonds of friendship between Luscombe owners and enthusiasts throughout the world.

In this way we hope to foster the spirit of camaraderie among Luscombe devotees that, in addition to the planes' superb flying qualities, has made these ships such great airplanes to own throughout the five-plus decades of their existence.

We are served by a Board of Directors, with each director elected to a three-year term.
