The 'Professional Committees' of the Guild, the Education and Training Committee (E&TC), the Technical and Air Safety Committee (TASC) and the Environmental Committee, each meet frequently - bi-monthly in the case of the E&TC and TASC, on alternating months - at the Guild office. It's through these committees that the Guild concentrates its attention and work on aviation issues and matters of concern.
The following is a selection of 'Livery' and other events and activities that feature in the annual calendar of the Guild. Most of the events listed are open to all Guild members (and also non-members in some cases). The list is not exhaustive but illustrates that the Guild is involved in many and diverse activities.
