I have just seen this on the central booking website

What sad news we wouldn't be where we are today without Ted.

I used to buy a lot of my gear from Ted back in the day.

My thoughts are with his family.

Ted Longshaw
A sad day in RC today with the news of Ted Longshaw’s passing… “Ted laid the foundations for the future as one of the founders of the BRCA along with EFRA a few years later and finally IFMAR in 1979, he served as President for both EFRA & IFMAR until stepping down from the day to day running in 1995 and appointed Honourary Life President. He will be remembered by many for his dedication, enthusiasm and commitment to RC racing.”
