The main flying opportunities offered to cadets is in the air
cadet training aircraft, the Grob Tutor and the Vigilant and Viking gliders
although some may have the chance to fly on a
civil airliner or go on an overseas flight in an RAF Tri-Star, VC10 or Hercules.
A few cadets have also had the opportunity to fly in a variety of other aircraft
including fast jets and with the Red Arrows.
Once in the air, cadets
are shown how the aircraft flies and given the chance to control the aeroplane,
experience aerobatics or simply admire the view.
There are also exciting
opportunities for cadets to learn how to fly, with scholarships for both powered
flight and gliding, look in the courses link for more information.
