✈️ What if one engineer helped change the course of history?

On Friday 8th May, we’re bringing a powerful and inspiring talk to Leek — uncovering the story behind the man who designed the legendary Spitfire.

Join renowned historian Tony Edwards as he reveals the life, vision and impact of R. J. Mitchell — the engineer behind one of Britain’s most iconic aircraft.

This isn’t just a history talk…
It’s the story of innovation, determination, and a design that helped shape the course of British & European history.

Congratulations to Cpl Will Trafford, Cpl Henry Baddeley and Cdt Ryan Webster who attended and passed their Bronze Wings training at 639 Aviation Ground School (AGS) at RAF Tern Hill. It is a tough training day and they have certainly earned the right to wear their bronze Wings.
Well done all of you.

Wishing his Majesty the King a very happy birthday from all of the cadets and staff of 60 (Leek) Squadron RAFAC

Another awesome day out for our cadets at the National Air and Space Camp at RAF Syerston. The cadets had the opportunity to meet with 73 leading industries from the aviation sector.
They toured static displays and had the chance to fly in complex aircraft simulators. To finish the day, a fantastic flying display. What a smasher

On Saturday 21st June, under a blazing summer sky, 11 proud cadets were invited to celebrate the retirement of His Majesty's Lord Lieutenant Sir Ian Dudson.

They carried themselves with dignity and respect. Sgt Lewis Hancock and I had the honour of taking the cadets to represent 60 Sqn, the Wing and RAFAC.

There were many dignitaries present who personally thanked individual cadets for being present, looking smart and helping to create an enjoyable evening.
