I don't see anywhere an emphasis on:
[*]Getting VGS people involved - after all, we know our area better than anyone....
[*]Getting Cadets Flown - we exist to fly our cadets - and I don't mean the staff here...........
[*]Emphasis on enjoyment - we used to enjoy our gliding, a day out in the fresh air with our mates and like minded people - not so anymore. Far too much emphasis on paperwork and syllabus.

Last time I was at Syerston doing my 'B' Cat, Bruce Tapson (who sent me first solo in 1981 !) was retiring and he spoke to me and said he thought 'we'd seen the best of Air Cadet Gliding....................'

how right he was............

Please God let this fiasco be rapidly resolved.
