On Sunday we were fortunate enough to get 4 last minute flying spaces at 8 Air Experience Flight. RAF Cosford. We joined 4 cadets from 156 (Kidderminster) Squadron ATC for the fun filled day.

The day started early with 4 cadets very quickly getting up in the air getting to do some aerobatics and pull G.

Unfortunately, wind picked up to speeds too great for cadet flight and flying was postponed for a few hours. To soften the blow we spent 2 hours together at the museum and unfortunately buying every single souvenir in sight. Upon return to 8 AEF we were saddened to find out the situation wasn't getting better but we completed the PTT element of our Blue Wings before heading home.

We would like to do a massive shout out to all the Cadets mums. Thank you for giving your child the opportunity to attend flying on Mother's Day and supporting them infinitely. They were all so happy to see you after the event.

Last Monday we had the opportunity to join take 7 cadets flying and bring 5 cadets from 2488 Kingswinford Squadron Air Training Corps with us.

We had a successful day dispite the previous very rainy days where 9 cadets got to fly and 6 of those first time flyers. All cadets gained their Blue Wings as we had the chance to do our PTT on site.

We all want to say a massive "Thank you" to CI Phillips for coming to assist us. All cadets from both squadrons loved having you join us for the day and the day would not have gone ahead without your invaluable help. Your energy and excitement kept everyone going thoughout the long day!
