Above info re ACPS and ACPNS is correct. I was fortunate to meet an ACPNS student at Benson over the summer just before and after her final qualifying land away - a fantastic girl who will go far.

Meanwhile, cadets who achieve solo in either a glider or a powered aircraft at their own expense (even if funded by sweeping hangar floors) are now forbidden from wearing the wings badges, a change introduced a couple of years ago. They have to do their flying on a scholarship (HCAP, RAFA, &c.) No, I don't understand the logic either... And yes, I have asked this question up the CoC and been ignored.
