The Elias TA-1 was a 1920s American biplane trainer aircraft built by Elias for evaluation by the United States Army Air Service.
The TA-1 (a United States military designation Trainer, Aircooled No. 1) was designed to meet a United States Army requirement for a training aircraft for the air service. The TA-1 was a conventional two-seat biplane. Three were built, two with a Lawrence R-1 engine and another with an ABC Wasp. The aircraft performance was inferior to the other aircraft under evaluation (the Dayton-Wright TA-3) and only three aircraft were built.
