1368 Sqn go kayaking on the Leam, 8 Aug 2025

Image
Friday saw cadets make the best use of a summer's day with a River Leam kayaking session at Royal Leamington Spa Canoe Club (RLSCC).  There was a nice mix of seniors, mids and juniors and plenty of wet games at the end.

Parade nights in pictures, to 6 Aug 2025

Cdt Y first to take up mantle of doing MOI dry-run. Inter-flight Drill battle on 8 Aug won by A, B and then C with Cpl H last person standing. FS H gets her Silver Cyber badge.  Radio focused night suggests more work needed, with a couple of shining lights.

Williams F1 STEM day, 31 Jul 2025

Image
6 cadets from 1368 (Warwick and Royal Leamington Spa) squadron managed to get selected for this 2nd batch of science-based interest visits to Williams Formula 1 organised by the Wing training team. The day included racing game simulators including a full crash pile up (so similar to our the last 1368 karting trip, it sounds like). Apparently it was 'amazing' and rumour has it that Cdt D was a bit of a winner for 1368 Sqn.

Air Experience Flying, RAF Cosford - 29 Jul & 1 Aug 2025

Image
Only 3 cadets flew on 29 Jul but managed very late notice scratch places on 1 Aug 2025 hence 5 cadets got to fly Tutor T1 last week, hence 4 more cadets from 1368 Squadron will get their blue aviation wings having also done Part Task Trainer (PTT) Blue flight sim as well. We have some more AEF slots coming up in August, so hopefully some more newbies up for their first flights. Many thanks to AEF8 for maximizing slots when weather allows.
