CIMA has a large number of [delegates|https://www.fai.org/page/cima-delegates] from around the World who meet annually at a *[Plenary|cimaPlenaries:]* meeting, usually in November. 

Most CIMA decisions are made at Plenary meetings but much work goes on throughout the rest of the year. *[Sub-committees|cima:Who is who#Members of permananent CIMA sub-committees]* and *[working groups|cima:Who is who#Members of temporary CIMA working groups]* are appointed by the Plenary to do specific work and a *[Bureau|cimaBureau:CIMA Bureau home]* consisting of a President, two vice Presidents, a Treasurer and a Secretary is elected by the Plenary to represent CIMA outside of the plenary. 

The main purpose of this wiki is to facilitate the collaborative work of the Bureau and the different sub-committees and working groups, and to make their activity and results visible to the air sports community.

{info:title=Message to CIMA Delegates}
All CIMA Delegates are encouraged to login, add to, and edit this wiki. It is not hard to use and there’s quite an extensive help section to get you started. Delegates will also find a lot more information than is available to unregistered users. The message is simple: *Don't be scared to break it, you can't. Use it, magic follows.*

Wikipedia is an example of how the right tool has promoted the creation of a colossal piece of knowledge, it's almost like magic.

If you don't have a login, please contact the [administrator|mailto:wikiadmin@fai.org]
