Your time, energy and passion help shape confident, capable young people, and the impact you make lasts far beyond the squadron.

Join us, build new skills, make great friends and help inspire the next generation.

📣 YOUR SQUADRON NEEDS YOU! 📣
At 405 (Darlington) Squadron, our motto is One Squadron, One Family. Every single week, we watch our cadets gain key life skills, unlock their potential, and build lasting confidence. But behind the scenes, keeping our family moving forward is only possible with our Civilian Committee (CivCom)!
The CivCom is the charity backbone of our squadron—managing funds, organizing local events, and supporting cadet welfare. Without volunteers like you, we simply cannot operate.
🕒 The Commitment: Just a few hours a month, entirely flexible to suit your schedule!
🤝 No Experience Needed: All we need is your energy and enthusiasm!
Whether you are a parent, guardian, or an interested member of the local Darlington community, your voice matters.

A huge well done to our very own Sgt Dobson, who last night received a Wing Commander’s Commendation.

During a recent course, a cadet became unwell. Sgt Dobson immediately stepped in, administering first aid, ensuring their welfare was fully taken care of, and staying with them until medical assistance arrived.

This is a true reflection of the dedication, professionalism and care shown by our staff every day, and the recognition is thoroughly deserved.

We’re also very happy to share that the cadet has since made a full recovery.

Blue skies ahead for FS Holly Davison

A massive well done to Holly for securing a prestigious Air Cadet Pilot Scholarship.

She fought off stiff competition across the region to earn her place.

Next stop: three weeks of flight training and the chance to go solo in a Grob Tutor.

Bravo, Flight Sgt!

The 405 family is behind you all the way.
