📣 Change of command 📣

After the Squadron being closed for 6 years, Flight Lieutenant McLellan took over as Interim Officer Commanding last year to get 2521 reopened. Last night marks an important milestone for our Squadron with Flt Lt McLellan officially handing over command to Flying Officer Hughes. We owe a massive thank you to Flt Lt McLellan for his dedicated leadership, hard work, and support to get our Squadron reopened and we wish Fg Off Hughes the absolute best as he steps up to lead us into this exciting next chapter!

While Flt Lt McLellan is stepping down as our Commanding Officer, he isn't going far. He is taking on his new role as Sector Commander, supporting 2521, 1777 Dumbarton Squadron Royal Air Force Air Cadets, and 1740 Clydebank Squadron Royal Air Force Air Cadets

We are thrilled for him in his new post, and we look forward to working closely alongside 1777 and 1740 Squadrons for future sector activities, training, and events in due course!

Please join us in thanking Flt Lt McLellan and welcoming Fg Off Hughes in the comments below! 👏✈️

🏅 Gold Medal Glory for 2521!

What a weekend! 2521 (Oban) Squadron made a massive impact at the West Scotland Wing Athletics competition. This was our first time competing as part of West Scotland Wing, and our cadets absolutely did us proud!

The highlight of the day? Huge congratulations to one of our cadets for clinching a Gold Medal in Long Jump! 🥇 jumping straight into the history books for the squadron.

To make the trip possible and keep the energy high, our team stayed overnight at the Wing Activity Centre near Glasgow, breaking up the travel and getting some great team-bonding time in before the big event.

-🚀 Why Just Watch from the Sidelines?

From sports and overnight trips to flying and leadership skills there is no limit to what you can achieve with the RAF Air Cadets.
