Flying For Beccles
After awful circumstances and continuous moves from our local Flying Station, the Squadron finally have slots to send the cadets flying at Royal Air Force College Cranwell.
A long drive to get there five cadets eagerly traveled up to RAF Cranwell to have an afternoon flying and experiencing more of what the Air Cadets have to offer. Assisted by CI Bob Ward the cadets each got a lengthy flight in a Grob Tutor, two seater aircraft. Everyone came back with positive remarks not only about the flying, but also how welcoming the Air Experience Flight team were and how well managed and looked after everything was there.
A fantastic opportunity for all who managed to go and fly.
“I went flying for the first time and it was a great experience. I spent 30 minutes in the air with an RAF officer. The views were stunning and being able to control the plane was awesome. The best part was all I had to pay for was my lunch for the day. Yet again, another amazing thing the ATC has to offer and I would definitely go again and recommend it to other cadets. ”
