tartare, RAF Syerston is home to No.2 Flying Training School, which has been at the reins of the unholy cock up which is Air Cadet gliding and power flying in the UK (or rather, the lack of). What was advertised as a brief pause in 2014, has now dragged on for years. Only now are cadets starting to get back in the air, at a vastly reduced number of sites, with fewer aircraft (including loss of the entire motor glider fleet) and most of the experienced volunteer staff lost.

If you have a few weeks spare, you can read the thread on it here: Air Cadets Grounded?
