Cadets went on an adventure to the Large Model Air show at Elvington Airfield outside York from the 8th of August to the 10th. Cadets from 1145, 1145DF, 1001, 1701 and 2 cadets from Highland wing travelled down on Friday and arrived that night to be greeted by the staff of the event. The airfield was covered in caravans and tents. The weather over the weekend was not the best having thunder storms on Friday night but the sun was shining for a great day of RC flying on the Saturday. There was not only scale models but full size aircraft such as XH558 the last flying Vulcan that flew past and several others including the Newcastle Jet Provost which 4 lucky cadets got to walk around, sit in and talk to the pilots. The air show was great fun even though we had to help out with parking and help people on the flight line but it was worth the job! Cadets also visited the Yorkshire Air Museum to witness aviation in the past on this amazing location. Cadets learnt a lot from the weekend and can't thank the staff enough for arranging what became a fantastic weekend! Photos Calum Maxwell
