Fourteen student pilots recently received their wings after graduating from 269 Pilots’ Course with 2 FTS at RAAF Base Pearce. Among these graduates was PLTOFF Andrew Cary, a former cadet with Ringwood Squadron of the Australian Air League.

Andrew was awarded the SJ. Goble Memorial Trophy as the most proficient pilot, the G. Scutt/E. Davey Memorial Trophy for most proficient at instrument flying and the Air BP Australia Trophy for the highest aggregate of academic marks. He also took out the Pilatus Aircraft Trophy as course dux – quite an achievement!

We wish Andrew all the best for the future, to learn more visit the Defence Force News here.
