Over the last two weeks, Off Cdts Bylina and Henry-Campbell have represented Yorkshire and the RAF as service stewards at Wimbledon - a role undertaken by the military since 1946. The opportunity to steward at Wimbledon is open every year to all UAS members.

Last week, some of our students went to RAF Brize Norton where they were able to visit a number of different squadrons. The trip showcased the huge variation of roles in the RAF and offered some really great insight into all the great opportunities on offer.

From the 18th-25th July, YUAS had an action packed week of training during our annual exercise LeadEx. The exercise consisted of a selection of Fieldcraft, AT and leadership training in order to help our students develop crucial skills for both military and civillian life.

Last Friday saw a big day for Yorkshire, as OC Charlie Trewhitt became our first student to fly their first solo since the Covid-19 pandemic. Congratulations Charlie on this outstanding achievement!

Today we are at #scarborougharmedforcesday ! Come find us by the static typhoon or the reactions test

Recently, some of our students were able to visit RAF Benson where they were lucky enough to enjoy three pax flights over Central London. The trip also included a visit to Danesfield where the students took part in some stand up paddle boarding along the Thames.

Congratulations to all of our students who have completed their exams! It has been a long year for many, but Yorkshire is excited for a summer of opportunities, especially, our annual leadership exercise "LeadEx". Good luck to everyone who is now waiting on their results!

Managing Stress Part Four: Be Kind to Yourself Your brain is like an engine - it won't work if you don't look after it! So: - Take breaks and take things slow sometimes. - Reward yourself! - Mix up boring and fun tasks. - Maintain your physical health too!

Recently, we had the privilege of being inspected by Commandant RAF College Cranwell, Air Commodore Dickens as part of the squadron’s Annual Formal Inspection. The inspection was attended by senior fellows of the squadron and enabled students to showcase what we do at Yorkshire.

In April, we held our first annual dinner since the beginning of the pandemic. The evening was great fun and gave students the chance to experience what a military formal dinner is like. It was also an opportunity to celebrate the squadron's achievements over the past year.

Managing Stress part three: Control the controllable Tips: 1. You don’t have to just react. Stop. Take a breath. Think. 2. Use proactive language. 3. Mediocrity isn't failure. 4. Choose which battles are worth fighting. 5. Success is based on failure. Don't be afraid to fail.
