b.o.b mini flight coningsby visit

On October 2nd, Eleven Cadets and nine staff from Scotland and Northern Ireland Region Air Cadets who are part of the team for the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight (BBMF) -  Mini Flight were invited down to RAF Coningsby home of the BBMF for Lincolnshire Lancaster Association day. Everyone was treated to a spectacular show and fly pasts much more exciting than any other show. The hospitality was first class and the Mini Flight were also on display in the main hangar, raising funds for the BBMF at the start of a new fundraising year! It was a long and tiring weekend but definitely well worth it! Cadets and staff alike had such a terrific day it was difficult to pull some of them away to make our preparations for the homeward trip. “I thoroughly enjoyed the display and the sound of the Merlin engine’s buzzing your head at 100 feet was amazing!” – Sgt Maxwell
Thanks have to go to the BBMF for the invitation, to all of the staff who organised and supported the trip and to the cadets for their hard work in the team!
