Flying &
Gliding
|
Cadets from both the Air
Training Corps and CCF are offered opportunities to fly in
light aircraft, gliders as well as other RAF and civil aircraft.
There are plenty of opportunities
open to cadets when flying, from aerobatics in the new Grob
Tutor to practicing stalls in a Grob Viking glider.
|
Some Cadets who stand out from the
rest may also get the opportunity to fly on a civil airliner or
go on an overseas flight in an RAF Tri-Star, VC10 or Hercules. A
few cadets have also had the opportunity to fly in a variety of
other aircraft including fast jets and the Red Arrows.
|
There
are also exciting opportunities for cadets to learn how to
fly, with scholarships for both powered flight and gliding.
In
general, every cadet will be given opportunities to fly during
their time as an active member of an ATC or CCF squadron. |
