<b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 18pt;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 18pt;">Ready for a Challenge?</span></b></div>
<div class="Standard" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 8.35pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Are you up for fun, adventure, incredible experiences and making new friends? Are you looking for something to give you the edge in life? Then welcome to the RAF Air Cadets. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Better known as the 'Air Cadets' we are a UK-wide cadet force with more than 40,000 members aged between 12 (School Year 8) and 20 Years Old.</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">We are sponsored by the Royal Air Force and can give you hands-on experience of activities and courses that will challenge and develop your skills to help you succeed in whatever you want to do in life.</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">As a cadet you'll have the opportunity to do thing</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">s that others can only dream about. Want real Flight Experience? No problem!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 14pt;">How about heading out on adventurous training and camps, sometimes overseas? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Normal for cadets; Competitive Sports, Drill, Duke of Edinburgh Awards, Shooting, Band, First Aid, Abseiling, Engineering Projects? Our list of activities is long, varied and open to all cadets.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Yes, it's a challenge, but that's what life's all about.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 18pt;">Get a Head Start<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">We are not a recruiting organisation for the RAF, but if you're thinking about a Service career, cadet membership will put you ahead of the competition.</span></div>
<div class="Standard" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 8.35pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 14pt;">Many cadets go on to great success in the RAF (and the other Services). Around 40% of officers and 50% of all aircrew (including pilots, navigators and engineers) in the RAF now are ex-Air Cadets.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="Standard" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 8.35pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 14pt;">Research shows that they do better in basic training and stay in the Service longer than their colleagues. Likewise, if you chose a civilian career </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 14pt;">our research proves you can go on to great things.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Employers just love the skills and experience that the Air Cadets offer.<span style="mso-no-proof: yes;"></span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="Standard" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 8.35pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 14pt;">Let's face it - where else would you be given the opportunity to fly solo in a glider or powered aircraft when you're 17? Whatever you do with your life, at the end of your time as a cadet you'll be self-motivated, confident and ready for anything.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The expedition was the
culmination of a great deal of preparation with training covering basic
paddling, rescue skills, longer journeying, first aid and camp-craft and
working on moving water. Their practice

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Civilian Instructor Chris Jestice (24) from 2461 (Sawston) Squadron was determined to fly having been unable to join the RAF as a pilot. He decided to pursue a career in civilian aviation and followed his passion, choosing helicopters rather than a fixed wing aircraft. After completing his initial flight training and ground school at Bristow Academy in Florida Chris went on to complete his training by completing a series of tough exams in the UK.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Chris first joined the Squadron aged 13 and took part in various activities such as target shooting, adventure training, first aid and of course flying and gliding. Gliding was an area in which Chris excelled, going solo at 16 and going on to be a staff cadet at 616 Volunteer gliding Squadron based at RAF Henlow in Bedfordshire.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Chris said “I’m really proud to have achieved my goal by becoming a commercial helicopter pilot. Being in the Air Cadets inspired me to fly and the training I received helped give me the basic knowledge I needed to start flying along with developing my personal skills such as teamwork, leadership and communication.”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Flight Lieutenant Chris Cox added “Chris is an excellent illustration of what young people can achieve after being members of the Air Cadets, he is an example of determination showing that you should never give up on pursuing your dream.”</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Chris will start his career in the commercial aviation world as a First Officer eventually working his way up to the rank of Captain. In the meantime he continues to serve at 2461 (Sawston) Squadron as an instructor passing on his knowledge of flying and gliding by instructing on the Squadron’s state of the art flight simulator funded by the Big Lottery Fund.</span>2461AirCadetshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04659567373963210676noreply@blogger.com0
