WELCOME TO 740 (WHITBY) SQUADRON

Our Cadets take part in many exciting activities two nights a week and most weekends! From flying and gliding to camping, shooting, DofE & First Aid! We are open to all young people from 12 years old (and in Year 8 at school) up to their 17th birthday, and provide the sort of opportunities that only come once in a lifetime!

This week saw 3 cadets from Whitby Squadron take to the skies in a Grob Tutor, flying out of RAF Leeming. For 2 of the cadets it was their very 1st flight!

The experience was enjoyed by all and thanks go to the staff for giving up their day to make the day happen!

The RAF Air Cadets would like to wish King Charles III a wonderful coronation day and we wish him the best of luck as the new reigning monarch of the United Kingdom.

Each of the MOD-sponsored Cadet Forces will be represented at the Coronation - a huge honour for the organisations and especially for the Cadets and Volunteers directly involved.

Thirty four cadets from the Duke of York’s Military School Combined Cadet Force, including members of the CCF(RAF) Section, will march alongside the Standards of The Royal British Legion in Parliament Square.

A Cadet Flight Sergeant who will parade the Air Training Corps Banner alongside representatives of the Sea Cadet Corps, Royal Marines Cadets, Volunteer Cadet Corps, Combined Cadet Force and Army Cadet Force.

One of our Cadet Warrant Officers is playing a key role in The Coronation ceremony by bearing the Flag of the United Kingdom, parading ahead of the Prime Minister at Westminster Abbey.

There will also be over 150 cadets and Cadet Force Adult Volunteers witnessing the Procession from the stands at Admiralty Arch.

Long live HM King Charles III

I have no doubt that the whole Royal Air Force Air Cadets family will be excited to watch the spectacle of Their Majesties’ Coronation this weekend.

I am delighted that all MOD-sponsored Cadet Forces will be represented at the Coronation, which is a huge honour for the organisations and especially for the Cadets and Volunteers directly involved.

Thirty four cadets from the Duke of York’s Military School Combined Cadet Force, including members of the CCF(RAF) Section, will march alongside the Standards of The Royal British Legion in Parliament Square.

I am very excited for the Cadet Flight Sergeant who will parade the Air Training Corps Banner alongside representatives of the Sea Cadet Corps, Royal Marines Cadets, Volunteer Cadet Corps, Combined Cadet Force and Army Cadet Force. Good luck!

Most incredibly, one of our Cadet Warrant Officers is playing a key role in The Coronation ceremony by bearing the Flag of the United Kingdom, parading ahead of the Prime Minister at Westminster Abbey. We are immensely proud of you!

There will also be over 150 cadets and Cadet Force Adult Volunteers witnessing the Procession from the stands at Admiralty Arch. They will also be very well placed to watch the Royal Air Force flypast over Buckingham Palace should the weather permit.

I am humbled that Air Cadets will be involved throughout the weekend’s celebrations, as we honour The King and Queen and proudly celebrate Their Coronation.

Keep an eye on the Air Cadets’ Social media channels to learn more about our contribution to the Coronation, and I’m sure you will join me in wishing every representative of the Cadet Forces the very best of luck for their roles in this most historic event.
