The Association was formed in 2002 to provide information and contact links for long lost friends, to hold reunions at regular intervals and to advise on visits to Sylt.  It has established a historical library system of DVDs, photographs and script and is actively involved in the exchange of historical and related material.  Membership is open to Royal Air Force personnel, irrespective of rank, who served as permanent staff at Royal Air Force Sylt during its operational period from 1945 to 1961, from which date it was handed over to the German Air Force.  The Association also welcomes personnel who served at the satelite station, RAF Schleswigland, from 1945 to 1958. Membership is also open to those who were civilian staff on either unit during those periods.

The Association is entirely self supporting and relies on annual subscriptions to cover its running costs.  Subscription Rates are currently £10.00 per annum for Single or Joint Membership.  Members receive newsletters, have access to the archives and regularly exchange photographic and other material relating to their time on the island.   To join, simply contact one of the Association officers who are listed below, use the 'Contact Us' page or download the membership application form by clicking HERE
