Syerston STING
Am I reading this correctly that a 'funded' Cadet project from NI is now at 2FTS (well know centre of non aviation) for what purpose!!
As an LAA project it is extremely unlikely that Cadets would be allowed to fly in it (as Cadets) due to its 'certification'. So what is going on.
Syerston is building itself up as a SUPER CENTRE of non flying whilst all around the system collapse's.
How long can this whole sorry mess be allowed to continue with spokeless hubs, no qualified staff, and a 'plan' that seems to rely on both potential staff, and Cadets having to be transported hundreds of miles to remote outlets for a complete w-end at a time, and that's before another system is arranged to provide qualified cover for the transport, accommodation, meals, from an organisation that is so under numbers on uniformed staff everywhere it beggars belief.
The game plan seems to be a recruiting drive for CI's (who we all know have been treated so well by the system) and no thought to the time it takes to get them 'authorised'. Well you may be able fool the 'Brass at the top' but if reading Air Cadet Central is anything to go by no one is fooling the troops on the ground who are well past the 'restless' stage. Does ANYONE in the Cadet organisation have any ideas about what is going (or not going on) and how to get it CHANGED.
