Volunteer Instructor for ATC Flying Camp
Thanks for that, seems there are quite a few around.
The lad is 13 in Jan. so will look into it further over the holidays.
I'm in Yeerongpilly so Corinda, Holland Park or Archerfield will do.

Volunteer found!
Thanks to those who made suggestions but a volunteer has been found and the instructor slots are full with an eager beaver waiting in the wings as the ground instructor.
It is a very satisfying thing to go back to put back into something that you love and that has helped you along the way.
If you get the opportunty to put back in, then go for it and encourage those starting out...
Have a happy Xmas and New Year y'all

I wish
My oldest boy is at 212 Sqn. at Redcliffe and loves it. He can start his flying training at their annual Amberley camp next year (if they have the instructors). Organisationally they can be a bit of a dog's breakfast but you have to put up with that when you releiant so much on volunteers.

Thanks Sqwark2000! 
I'm so glad that you were able to locate an instructor. Your's and other's attitude towards us cadets is very reassuring. Can't wait to attend the NAC myself so I can experience the excitement and magic of flight with great people like you
PS If anyone knows any guys or girls between 13 and 15, living in Auckland and is interested in aviation and the military, our squadron (3 Squadron) is recruiting for next year. Loads of activities happening next year including our own squadron flying camp, shooting camp and tramps. PM me for details.
Cheers Tony.

I wish, if your boy makes the choice to join. He will never regret it. Depending on how much he puts in he will get heaps out of it. My two oldest are doing a biv up at Lakes Entrance at the moment. Oldest is right to go flying training next year at Point Cook. That will be another one fighting to get in the left seat
Ex 12flight 212SQN for me. Have had a ball and am civ instructing at 406/418 so giving a bit back. My brother has his two girls go through our old flight. Flying Spike, I am sure will back me on this,212 is THE best equipped squadron in the entire system. The CO, Tony Lee, has performed miracles to get the squadron to where it is today.
