☀️ Making the most of the summer sunshine!🛩️

Another 9 of our fantastic cadets took to the skies today at Leuchars, getting some incredible flying experience under their belts. 🛫

A massive thank you to CI Pearson and Deb for driving the cadets to and from the station. Trips like this simply wouldn't happen without our incredible team of staff and volunteers who go the extra mile to deliver the ultimate cadet experience! 🙌

☀️ Blue skies and big smiles! ✈️

Today, four of our cadets took full advantage of a rare sunny day in Scotland, hitting the skies for an incredible flight in the Grob Tutor.

For some, this was a massive milestone ticked off their cadet career checklist, and everyone had an amazing time experiencing the thrill of flight.

​A huge thank you to 4 AEF for providing such a fantastic experience! ✈️

On Monday evening, we were delighted to welcome the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service to the Squadron. 🚒

The crew delivered a fantastic session on fire safety, providing our cadets with vital life skills and a greater understanding of the incredible work our emergency services do every day.

A huge thank you to the team for taking the time to visit us and for letting us get a closer look at the appliance!

Inspiring the engineers of tomorrow. 💡

​Our squadron spent Wednesday evening exploring the cutting edge of aerospace technology at the Rolls-Royce factory. The cadets got a first-hand look at the factories that drive modern aviation, sparking plenty of questions about future careers in the industry.

We were pleased to be joined by cadets from 1701 Johnstone Squadron RAF Air Cadets — it's always great to collaborate and share these unique opportunities!

Well done to all the cadets who smashed their Bronze First Aid course over the weekend. From CPR to casualty care, these cadets have worked hard to earn their new badges.

A big shout-out to the staff who gave up their weekend to lead the training—we couldn’t do it without you! ✈️💙

Huge congratulations are in order for 15 of our dedicated cadets from across West Scotland Wing! 🌟

These cadets have officially earned their Bronze First Aid badges after successfully completing the Youth First Aid course training and assessments.

From managing minor injuries to handling emergency situations, they’ve proven they have the skills and the confidence to step up when it counts.

First aid is one of the most vital skills we teach in the RAF Air Cadets, and seeing 15 individuals from various squadrons across the Wing succeed together is a testament to their hard work and the quality of our instructors.

Thank you to 2175 Rolls-Royce Squadron RAF Air Cadets for organising and hosting!

Well done to everyone involved! Wear those badges with pride—you’ve earned them.

A massive well done to the three of our cadets who had the incredible honour of representing RAF Air Cadets at Murrayfield this past weekend.

It was a proud moment for the squadron to see them on such a prestigious stage. They carried themselves with absolute distinction and did both RAFAC and our squadron proud 🏉
