I look forward to welcoming you as a member of the country's premier uniformed youth organisation, the Air Training Corps. Air Cadets aged 13 to 20 are given the chance by our team of staff and adult volunteers to learn to fly aerobatics, learn skills to lead expeditions, tour foreign countries, compete in sporting competitions, become target shooting marksman, join a band, learn about aviation and aerospace, gain BTEC awards, Duke of Edinburgh Awards, attend camps and courses in the UK and beyond- only a small list of the many activities and opportunities for an enviable social life with many new friends.
