Recently Berwick Squadron held a Flight Simulator night where the cadets all had a chance to try out three different flight simulator activities running the hall.

In one section we had four computers running Flight Sim X all networked together so every pilot had visibility of all other pilots flying. This allowed them to practice formation flying and to also chase each other, continuously changing their planes to be faster aircraft so they can stay ahead the rest. We had one PC with full Yoke, throttle and pedal controls, two with yoke and throttle controls and one with joy stick control.

Currently two major Federal portfolios are vacant and we are seeking Expressions of Interest for the positions of Federal Field Commissioner and Federal Finance Commissioner, as well as Chairman of the Council of the Australian Air League.

Cadets and Squadrons of the Australian Air League jetted in from across Queensland to take part in the Queensland Group annual state competition, the Group Review, at Mapleton Qld on the Sunshine Coast over the weekend.

Did you know your membership in the Air League could count towards a National Qualification?

The Air League is developing an exciting range of new programs for older cadets, Warrant Officers, Trainee Officers and Squadron Officers in partnership with the School of Volunteer Management – a Sydney based Registered Training Organisation. Those taking part can develop a portfolio of achievement for Certificate Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 in Active Volunteering and each program would be designed to recognise Air League training and experience. For example, Level 1 could be achieved in less than 30 hours of Squadron time – or one school term.

These new qualifications will recognise the hard work and dedication of our volunteers, including older cadets and NCOs

Federal Training Commissioner, Tom Short, said, “These new qualifications will recognise the hard work and dedication of our volunteers, including older cadets and NCOs. I would encourage everyone to take part and get qualified”.

The fee for enrolment at Level 1 will be set at $120 and this includes for registration, learning resources, assessment process and final certification. Participants would work on their learning portfolios in their own time, drawing evidence from Air League activities and training.
