Cadet Experiences
During my time in the RAFAC I have had lots of fun and made new friends. I have gone to camp at RAF Halton for a week, where I did activities such as shooting and experiencing RAF Lifestyle. I have also been flying; I flew in a Grob Tutor at St. Athan where I was allowed to take control which was an amazing experience. On a parade night, I enjoy modelling, archery and night expeditions. Overall, my experience in the RAFAC has been very fun and I have learned lots of new things.

Throughout my time in the RAFAC, I have completed numerous activities and exercises which has provided useful skills to aid later in life. For example, I attended a 7 day camp at RAF . During the camp, I was tasked with various training procedures, such as leadership and flying. I also went shooting on the same day! I believe this is one of the most enjoyable days I have had in my cadet career. The squadron's overall atmosphere is constantly developing, allowing for the most gratifying and rewarding experiences I have ever been a part of.
