At RAF Wittering today for the @LondonUAS and 115 Squadron Annual Formal Inspection. During the visit I had my first chance to get up close to G-BYXH which is taking part in a conspicuity trial. It looked great in today’s sunshine. #NoOrdinaryJob #NoOrdinaryStudent

Congratulations to all of the new ULAS students for completing their first flight in the Tutor! It has been a challenging year for Tutor flying but the aircraft recovery programme is now past half way and we hope to be able to resume air cadet flying very soon. #NextGenRAF
Over the last few days, we were delighted to host some of our students at @RAF_Wittering for our ULAS Induction Camp.
Yesterday, they all completed their Familiarisation Flight - the first step towards flying solo!

80 years ago, Beatrice Shilling, an engineer at the Royal Aircraft Establishment, developed a restrictor valve that prevented RAF fighters from stalling during dives – a serious drawback during the Battle of Britain. Today would have been her 111th birthday #IWD2020
