On the 3rd of June 2026 Corporal Roy of the Joint Air Delivery Test & Evaluation Unit (JADTEU) Helicopter and Training Section (Hels) and personnel from the South Central Ambulance Charity (SCAS) undertook a 50 Mile walk, carrying full response equipment and wearing standard trust uniform, starting in Didcot and finishing in Bicester. A donation goal of £2000 had been set which was quickly exceeded.

The 50 mile walk saw the team travel from Didcot, through Oxford City, Kiddlington, Adderbury and finally finishing at the Northern House in Bicester. The fundraiser saw bright sunshine, high winds and heavy rain which didn’t slow down the team who completed the fundraiser in 16 hours, finishing at 3am.

On 11 November, personnel from JADTEU, MFF Solutions, QinetiQ, RATE Services and Safran gathered at Skydive Arizona during Exercise RISING GAINS 2-25 to honour Remembrance Day.

Together, they paused to reflect on the courage and sacrifice of those who have served and continue to serve in defence of freedom.

In the spirit of international cooperation, the team observed a moment of silence — a shared tribute to the fallen and a reaffirmation of their commitment to service, respect, and remembrance.

This week JADTEU had the privilege of welcoming past and present members to RAF Brize Norton for a special reunion, bringing together those who have served on the Unit and its predecessors, including JATEU and JATE.

Members of the JADTEU Association spent the day reconnecting, sharing stories, and gaining insight into the Unit’s current operations.

The day concluded with a poignant and memorable A400M Atlas flypast, flown by No. 24 Squadron, RAF Brize Norton. This moment also served as a tribute to Ian Foster, former TCO at JADTEU, who sadly passed away in September 2024. His contributions and dedication to the Unit will not be forgotten.
