Hythe Squadron Air Training Corps

Hythe Squadron Air Training Corps 2495 (Hythe) Squadron - We are a very active ATC Squadron participating in loads of fun Activities from Flying to Duke of Edinburgh's Expedition. No problem.

Ready for a challenge? As a cadet you'll have the opportunity to do things that others only dream about. Want real flight experience? How about heading out on adventurous training and camps, sometimes overseas? Normal for cadets. Competitive sports, Drill, Target Rifle Shooting, Music, Abseiling, Engineering projects? Our list of activities is long, varied and open to all cadets. Yes it's a challenge, but that's what life's all about. Get a head start. We are accepting young people from age 12 (and in Year 8). We are also accepting staff applications. Find your role. Let's face it - where else would you be given the opportunity to fly solo in a glider or powered aircraft when you're 17? Whatever you do with your life, at the end of your time as a cadet you'll be self-motivated, confident and ready for anything.

Duke of Edinburgh expedition time. Two of our cadets went on their Bronze and Silver Duke of Edinburgh awards expeditions. Both successfully completing, one obviously showing what a fan of the Hampshire and IOW Royal Air Force Air Cadets DofE officer she is.

The Squadron Civilian Welfare Committee put on a Barbecue for the whole Squadron with the help of our very own Flight Sergeant behind the grill producing great food. Everyone had a lovely evening and it was great to see all the cadets socialising and meeting new cadets and parents.

Hi All, please take care in the heat and apply the HIP/CIP training we recently did.
Apologies but we will not be meeting tonight due to the weather warnings. I will keep all up to date if the weather warnings continues.

Calling all girls aged 13 to 18 who are curious about what a future in aerospace and defence could look like!!

We’re excited to invite you to a Girls in Aviation Day at the AirTanker Hub, RAF Brize Norton on Saturday 19 September and applications are now open!

On the day, you will:
✈️ Step inside a real aviation environment at the AirTanker Hub
✈️ Take part in hands-on activities and team challenges
✈️ Get closer to aircraft and explore how they work
✈️ Experience how flight planning and operations come together
✈️ See how different skills and interests link to real careers

Too many young people rule out careers before they have had the chance to see what they involve. Giving girls access to real environments and experiences helps change that.

Know someone who might be interested? Share this opportunity with them - https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/GIAD26

AirTanker looks forward to welcoming the next generation into aviation.

Continuing on the learning and training theme. Two of our cadets have been learning all about Jet engines as part of their Master cadet training. What better way to learn than to do. They both got together to put together this 3d printed jet engine which lights up and moves, they did this all without any instructions and minimal input from instructors.
