"Lucky Mother's Day" gliding for 3 1368 cadets, RAF Little Riss, 20 Mar 2025

Image
Sunday saw 3 lucky cadets from 1368 jump in last minute to fulfill scratch places at 612 VGS, Little Rissington. The cadets got a mother's day of dreams (for an air cadet) with their heads in the clouds. It was a glorious and gusty sunny day, including taking control of an RAF Viking T1 (Grob G 103A Twin II Acro) and learning how to assist on the ground. Congrats to Cdt Y who achieved Blue Flying Wings.

Air Cadet Pilot Scholarship Gold Wings for 1368 CWO, Mar 2025:

Massive congratulations to 1368's CWO D who became one of the first air cadets in the country to undertake the new RAF-delivered ACPS scheme at RAF Leuchars in Scotland in March 2025 to achieve Gold Flying Wings. A trailblazer for the new RAF programme, he got to fly a Tutor T1 plane solo for the first time. Many thanks to the Royal Air Force for providing the opportunity. Hopefully the start of many more for cadets that continue their cadet experience post 18.
