It applies to all civilian youth organisation personnel who have contact with children (including civilian instructors who may only come in contact with children once a week at a Parade).
Not sure about the Services, although English law usually applies across the board, but I don't know if the Military are exempt in this instance?
The TRAININGCOM does not mention any exemptions or particular circumstances relating to the giving of flying instruction - only that the Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2006 applies generally and that flying instruction and examination is a 'regulated activity' under the terms of the Act.
There are no exceptions for driving instructors, for example, as far as I am aware so I see no particular reason why flying instructors and examiners should receive special treatment?
