What are Air Scouts?
Air Scouts take part in all standard Scouting activities, but with a special emphasis on aviation and aerospace.
Their activities include:
✈️ Learning about aircraft and aerodynamics
🛩️ Visiting airfields, museums, and RAF bases
🛠️ Aircraft model building and drone flying
🎮 Flight simulators and aviation technology
🎖️ Earning aviation-related badges
🚀 Exploring space and rocketry
Our group endeavour to ensure each Air Scout gets an actual flying experience at some point in their time with us, including gliding or powered flight. Our Air Scouts flew in 4-man planes on their 2025 Summer Camp.
We are proud to be RAF recognised.
Activities and what you’ll get up to
Build and develop your confidence, sense of adventure and outdoor skills. Explore you beliefs and attitudes and be creative. Gain independence and put these skills into practice at camps and even on international trips.
Awards
Scouts start small but think big, always challenging themselves to do more and be more. It starts with an award. Who knows where it might lead?
Scout Promise
As a values based movement we all make the ‘The Promise’ an oath that helps us to be our best
Uniform and badge placement
You don’t need a uniform to join. But once you’ve settled in, you’ll start speedily earning badges, and you’ll need to know where to put them!
