Vulcan Volunteering๐Ÿ’™โœˆ๏ธ

Yesterday was our monthly visit to Wellsbourne airfield Vulcan XM655!

We had 7 cadets with some new cadets that have never been before , plus a visit up into the cockpit which is quite exciting for them !
Cadets got busy and swept and cleaned the pad from any debris and mud & later on in the afternoon completed some monthly checks on the GTC , Palouste & Hydraulic rig โš’๏ธ
Even got a visit from the worldโ€™s fastest shed! Which is very unique

Thank you to Avro Vulcan Xm655 Official Site The MaPS team for letting us come down every month and help with the restoration and maintenance ๐Ÿ˜„

This week, CDT Zdyb, SGT Cebotari, and our Squadron Training Officer, APO Morris, attended NACATC Windermere as part of the Wales & West Air Cadets Regional Adventure Training Camp.

The team joined the advanced rock climbing stream, where the cadets went from limited experience to becoming qualified Indoor Climbing Assistants, confident in lead climbing and belaying, and even took on outdoor trad climbing and abseiling! ๐Ÿง—โ€โ™‚๏ธ

APO Morris said:

"Itโ€™s been a great opportunity for the cadets to get instruction from some of the highest qualified instructors within the Corps, and to gain qualifications and experiences that arenโ€™t available every day. Iโ€™m also working towards becoming a Rock Climbing Instructor myself, and this week gave me the chance to put my skills into practice by teaching under the supervision of highly qualified staff."

With opportunities like this, thereโ€™s never been a better time to get involved. Whether you want to push yourself outdoors, gain qualifications, or support young people, the RAF Air Cadets has something for you.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Join us today โ€“ cadet or adult volunteer!
