Congratulations to Sergeant Thompson who has been awarded his C category gliding instructors rating, he is now the youngest gliding instructor in Northern Ireland and qualified to take other cadets on training flights!

Cadets made an early morning trip from Belfast International bound for Liverpool to go Air Experience Flying at RAF Woodvale. For three cadets it was their first time taking the controls of an aircraft whilst some others choose to undertake some aerobatics! All thoroughly enjoyed the day and can't wait to go flying again.
