Dear Santa the ATC needs your help. Please supply the following for 2018.
60 Kirby Cadet MK3
20 MB Wilde Winches (twin drum)
40 Series one Land Rovers
15 Austin 1 Ton 4x4
60 drums cable

This will get us 'operational' again and we will train up the required staff cadets to get involved. To keep things simple we will go back to the Bl.... Bats (table tennis surplus white) and involve even more hands on input.
Once up and running the system will be 'self starting' and we will prob have a waiting list of people wishing to get involved. Many thanks and don't bother to contact HQ Air Cadets as they will no idea what its all about. Pobjoy
I agree with Pobjoy.
I've stated several times in this thread, Air Cadets do not 'need' something as high performance as the Viking and a return to low performance in order to get the cadets to solo standard easier should be called for.
