I was really proud and honoured to be presented with an embroidered copy of the Squadron's new coat of arms. It rounded off a fantastic period of Marshall Trophy celebrations.

Looking wet but still smiling, great effort well done.

With 3 wet miles to go along the Tyne, a reminder that we do this for a reason. Last push now. If everyone who sees this can share, and anyone who is able can donate £1 for @SSAFA, we will be doing a lot to support the whole UK Armed Forces community. justgiving.com/fundraising/k…

Reflecting on a weather mixed day at RAF Odiham Families Day. Great effort with all parties pulling together to ensure a successful event; all dry and happy at the end of the day.

I love spending time here as supernumary- paying back to my childhood squadron I get a lot of pleasure bringing on the next generation of 2327 Cadets alongside my “normal” job as SSO! @SWRegionRAFAC

I thought it would be nice to share my wife’s efforts in the garden to start the day with some colour.

There are many fantastic opportunities for our cadets, however, we must get as many airborne as possible. Sadly many cadets will leave without this great experience.
Some excellent flying for @1391Sqn with @2_aef_ today including a first flight for Cadet Chivers who finally managed to get airborne on his 6th attempt due to previous bad weather. Even a bit of site seeing undertaken whilst up.

Fantastic effort by the cadets, in what looks like very difficult weather conditions.
Air Cadets from across Essex Wing have been giving up their time selling poppies to raise funds for the Royal British Legion, including cadets from 1312 (Southend-on-Sea) Sqn.

I have actually found something older than me! A birthday present from my sons; a flight in a Tiger Moth from Duxford.

Great day out, superb hospitality from the Virgin team. Some lovely shiny shoes, following the great tradition of 2327 Havant squadron.
Yesterday our Cadets had the fantastic opportunity to go behind the scenes at Heathrow Airport, visiting the Virgin Atlantic hanger. We got to see aircraft & engines from close up, also taking a full tour inside an aircraft from tail to cockpit. @VirginAtlantic @aircadets
