What a superb evening its been with @Chf_Eng_Air hosting a virtual Squadron talk, with an insight into his 40+ years service with the RAF.
Thank you again Sir!

[290 Squadron Air Training Corps @290ATC]

@Chf_Eng_Air Looking forward to it Sir!

That's the end of 290 Squadrons' 2020 year.

Happy Christmas to all our staff, cadets, parents, committee and Squadron friends! Here's to 2021 and hopefully a different cadet experience for all!

Remembrance parade Weston-super-Mare last year. Extremely proud to be the Officer Commanding of an amazing group of staff and young men and women.

This year we can’t stand together at Remembrance services so the @royalbritishlegion is encouraging people to show their support by placing a poppy in their window and standing on their doorstep for the Two Minute Silence. How will you mark the Act of Remembrance @aircadets ?

[290 Squadron Air Training Corps @290ATC]

Great to be heading back to face to face training on November 5th!
Cant wait to see the Cadets in person 👍

@Chf_Eng_Air Looking like twins in the first picture 😁

[290 Squadron Air Training Corps @290ATC]

Proud to attend our local @RAFAssociation Battle of Britain Church service. Strange to attend in a suit and with no CADETS, however great to see the RAFA members again.

[290 Squadron Air Training Corps @290ATC]

The staff and I have been working hard to put the squadron back together post refurb and covid. Nearly ready to submit the paperwork to WHQ then hopefully @RgComdtSW will give us the green light to get back to face to face activities 👍

@ComdtAC Think you said it was the first 'field promotion' of your tenure down in Bridgwater for 65 Sqn, who did a Guard of Honour for the Somerset Joint Cadet Meal in 2012. You made the newly promoted cadet NCOs beam from ear to ear! Happy retirement Ma'am.

Although we are not at Weston Armed Forces Weekend, we are there in spirit! @WSMERCURY @Chf_Eng_Air @MediaDevSom
