Air Experience Flying

Sunday 15th January 2012


Squadron CrestCdts 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.


RAF Museum visit

Wednesday 28th December 2011


Squadron CrestThree Cadets joined Sgt Westbrook in 578 Sqn's Annual Visit to the Royal Air Force Museum in Hendon. The purpose of the visit is to enhance on their learning of the History of Flight and the History of the RAF which they study in class. This is a great training aid as they are able to see the aircraft close up. All the Cadets had a great time and all came away with a Royal Air Force bear as a memento of their visit.

Squadron Crest5 cadets went to Crowborough Training Camp for a day of going over the military Obstacle Course.
