Start with the basics
New cadets build up gradually.
Once enrolled into training, cadets work through initial first class training and learn the core skills they need before taking on wider activities.
Activity availability
Air Cadet activities are delivered safely by qualified staff and approved RAFAC processes. Some activities depend on age, training stage, medical consent, weather or external programme availability.
