PRIZEWINNERS 2007
It has long been the policy of the
branch; in association with the CUMBERNAULD FLYING SCHOOL, to award two flying
scholarships to the Cadets of 2496 Squadron of the Air Training Corps who have
collected the most during the “Wings Week” collection. Each of the cadets
gets one hours flying instruction, logbook and handbook and alongside we see
them in the Cumbernauld Airport with their pilot tutor.
Below we see them in; a slightly less formal setting, before taking off on their great adventure.
