The Air Training Corps is an organisation that was developed to encourage and help assist young people aged between 12 and 20 years old to have a career in the Royal Air Force and similar aviation careers. We have four main aims: – To promote and encourage among young men and women a practical interest in aviation and the Royal Air Force. – To promote training which will be useful both in the services and in civil life. – To foster the spirit of adventure. – To develop qualities of leadership and good citizenship. Young people enjoy flying, gliding, shooting, adventure training, rock climbing, canoeing, Duke of Edinburgh’s Award scheme. Membership open to all between 12 & 18 years.
