Welcome
Welcome to the 578 (Langley Park) Squadron website. On this website you will be able to find out everything you need to know about what we do as air cadets and the opportunities open to you as a member. The Air Training Corps is an established youth organisation for teenagers aged between 13 and 18 and offers opportunities that would not otherwise be available to you - flying, gliding, shooting etc - you could even fly a Glider solo before you are old enough to drive!
We also have opportunities, both uniformed and Civilian, for Adults who want to volunteer their services to help run activities for the cadets and have many of the same opportunities open to them as the cadets do.
Again our cadets and staff are taking part in Maggie's Night Hike please use the widget to help us raise funds for this worthy cause

Air Experience Flying
Sunday 15th January 2012
Cdts Hing, Geregersian and Muslu went to Royal Air Force Benson to try their hand at flying the initial RAF Trainer, the Grob Tutor G115E. They all got to put their knowledge learnt in the classroom into practice when their instructors told them 'they have control'. All the Cadets came home on a high at the end of a great day out, and the weather was perfect for the Sqn's Aviators.What we do
We offer a wide range of activies including, but not limited to:
- Flying
- Gliding
- Adventure Training
- Sport
- Target Shooting
- Aviation Training
- Leadership Training
Through this training program we are helping cadets develop such that they have skills useful in either the services or civilian life.
