As a Specialist Body appointed by the BMFA, the Association has an automatic place on the SFTC Committee. This committee is concerned with all matters relating to 'silent flight' model flying in the UK,
and has particular responsibilities for F3J and the way the sport is organised.

The committee is currently (February 2002) made up of the following members:

Chris Bishop (Chairman)
Peter Allen (Secretary)
Chris Moynihan (Treasurer)
Robin Sleight
Mike Proctor
Colin Lucas

and the specialist body delegates, who may vary depending on the decision of the organisation concerned:

F3J-UK Association: Nick Evans
BARCS: Mark Easey
BEFA: Terry Stuckey

The Committee normally meets about about four times a year. As a service to members we are making minutes available on the F3J-UK website as word files below.
