We’ve got some exciting news…

The 2024 Air League Flying and Gliding Scholarships open to new applications on the 29th of January: that’s less than 2 weeks away! 🎉

Last year, the Air League was proud to award a total of 93 Flying and Gliding Scholarships.

Data from the 2023 cohort of Scholars highlighted that 31% were female, which is far higher than the industry average of 6.5% for pilots. 49% of Scholars were under the age of 18, and 47% were aged between 18-25. Furthermore, one in three Scholars were from an ethnic or minority background and 50% of 2023 Scholars’ parents were not university educated. The Air League is proud to be supporting young people from all backgrounds to kickstart a career in aviation.

To apply for a Scholarship, you must hold an Air League Membership which starts from just £30/year and allows access to other Air League opportunities including events, lectures, webinars, industry visits and volunteering. ✈

After months of hard work from WO Barker, putting in permissions, building and arranging the authorisation of Sawstons air rifle range and after completing the Air Rifle RCO Course along with CI Willers. With the help of FS Hornsby we were able to have our first squadron parade night shoot, with 6 cadets. They practiced positioning and group shooting and all did very well for their first shoot.

To participate in an air rifle shoot, cadets must have completed an IWT (Air Rifle) (initial weapons training) course. Please look out and sign up for these courses on cadet portal.
