What are Air Scouts?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Air Scouts take part in all standard Scouting activities<\/strong>, but with a special emphasis on aviation and aerospace<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their activities include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2708\ufe0f Learning about aircraft and aerodynamics
\ud83d\udee9\ufe0f Visiting airfields, museums, and RAF bases
\ud83d\udee0\ufe0f Aircraft model building and drone flying
\ud83c\udfae Flight simulators and aviation technology
\ud83c\udf96\ufe0f Earning aviation-related badges<\/a>
\ud83d\ude80 Exploring space and rocketry<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are proud to be RAF recognised<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
