Leading
First Class Cadets undertake training towards becoming a "Leading" Cadet. During this training you will be learning the principles of navigating using map and compass. You will also be learing how aircraft fly and what makes helicopters stay in the air, and in Airmanship II you will be learning the Highway Code of the the Sky.
You will study the following ACPs:
- ACP 32 Volume 2: Basic Navigation
- ACP 33 Volume 2: Principles Of Flight
- ACP 34 Volume 2: Airmanship II
You will also need to undertake at least 25 hours of "Project" work.
- Aircraft Recognition
- Aeromodelling
- Band Training
- Drill
- Extra-curricular Activities
- PT
- Engineering
- & many other projects may be available
Each of these sections has a corresponding multiple choice test paper or practical test. Each of these must be passed in order to progress on to become a Leading Class Cadet. Don't panic! You will be given a lot of help to do this.
Cadets who have any form of learning difficulty, especially dyslexia, should ensure that the Staff are aware. The ACO will do its best to help all Cadets succeed, regardless of ability.
NOTE: Do not get confused between the Cadet RANK and CLASSIFICATION (Training) structures. They are mostly independent from each other.
