2146 Sqn restart Tutor flying at Colerne
On Sunday 2nd February, a number of cadets from 2146 (South East Bristol) Squadron went to Colerne Airfield in Wiltshire for a morning of flying. Fortunately the conditions were perfect for flying, which meant that these cadets were all able to experience a 30 minute flight.
They are able to fly in excess of 4000 feet and perform aerobatic manoeuvres. Some of us were lucky enough to be able to perform the aerobatics independently under the watchful eye of the instructor pilot.
Flying is just one of the many opportunities offered to young people aged 13 to 18 all across the country, who are members of the Royal Air Force Air Cadets.
