The Association's Purpose
The Purpose of the RAAF TELSTECHs Association is to bring together those people
who served in the Royal Australian Air Force as Telecommunications Technicians (TELSTECHs) between 1953 and 1989. Our commitment is to
hold reunions and get-togethers at regular intervals in different localities across Australia and to encourage those in remote areas
to hold reunions of their own with people from their own area.
The Association founder is Neil Hunter (retired), who handed over to the current President Nipper McGilvery in 2019. Our Patron is Group Captain Bob Scrivener,
president is Nipper McGilvery, and treasurer is Kim Stafford. The TELSTECH database, webpages, and secretarial duties are managed by Kiwi (Ian Mckee).
Life membership is $100 and annual membership is $10, with the membership year being from 1 March to 28 February. Funds are used for the domain name registration and to fund reunions/general administration.

The domin name changed in 2023 in line with ASIC rules.
The Association was legally incorporated as TELSTECHS ASSOCIATION INC. on 17 April 2023.
This allowed the Association to register the new telstechs.org.au domain name, to be exempt from annual returns, BAS returns,
ASIC registration, and costly accounting and auditing fees.
