Fantastic numbers parading at Bideford on Monday for a great evening of fun. The cadet NCO team ran a STEM evening that everyone enjoyed. The cohort of 14 new cadets are now through their basic training and enjoying air cadet life.

With such good cadet numbers at the squadron it was time for some overdue promotions. Congratulations to corporals Tout, Brett, Cooke and Mojsej on your advance to sergeant.
