I don't know the current stats but a few years ago the CIOs used to say that 40% of all airmen and 60% of all Officers were ex cadets - add that to the increase in 'air mindedness' and good will generated amongst those cadets that chose not to make the armed forces a career and the positive effect on the 'yuff' make them a bit of a bargain IMO. Worth an odd hour here or there?
