Young pilots get their wings

Wing Parade With the sun shining at the Debert Airfield, the Regional Gliding School (Atlantic) hosted its final parade for the summer. Lieutenant-General Eric Findley and Mr. Denis Dunne were the Reviewing Officers as the school’s cadets, now full pilots, marched in front of their parents and distinguished guests. The event, which saw nearly 60 new air cadet pilots get their wings, marked the end of this year’s Glider and Power Pilot Scholarship Courses. Congratulations to all and see you next year!

The end of a cycle

A flight On the 5 of July 2009, 80 air cadets from across the country were sent to the Regional Gliding School (Atlantic) (RGS(A)). 17 Went to Greenwood, 18 to Moncton and 45 stayed in Debert. 6 weeks latter we have a group of new pilots walking away back to their homes with wings on their chests. With its goal achieved the school is now preparing for the fall familiarization program and can now count on new blood to help it give the experience of flying to all air cadets. The next few lines will give you an overview of what will happen after the summer and how the school keeps the flying spirit alive all year around.
