It's been a busy weekend for , Saturday saw a number of cadets head to for an amazing tour which included an on-board visit to one of the waiting aircraft. We also had a few cadets who were trained on the Scorpion Air Rifle, followed by a live shoot.

Today (Sunday) our Cadet NCOs along with 5 cadets aspiring to be NCOs attended a training course covering 'What is expected of an NCO', JNCO and SNCO role specific training, all to help our Cadets develop in their existing roles and to help enhance their skills to take the next step.
