Story

In early 2023, we fulfilled a dream by replacing our aged flight simulator, purchased over 15 years ago, with a new one. It's been a huge success, bringing excitement to our cadets' learning experiences.

The enthusiasm has been incredible! Cadets are diving into aviation, applying their knowledge in a fun, hands-on way. Now, there's a growing demand for a second simulator.

Our goal is simple: we want another flight simulator to enhance learning for our cadets. It comes with a £5,000 price tag, and we're ready to take it on. We can cover half the cost from our reserves, built up through cadet subscriptions and other income.

But, we need your help with the other half. Whether through grants, fundraisers, or the generosity of donors like you, every contribution brings us closer to our goal. Join us on this journey to the skies and be part of this exciting story.

🚀 Come and be a part of shaping the future for these young minds. Your support won't just get us a simulator; it'll make dreams take flight, ignite passions, and empower the next generation.
