Welcome to the Air Training Corps at the Royal International Air Tattoo

The RIAT Air Cadet Camp is the biggest single Air Cadet Organization calendar annual function. Cadets make up the largest single contingent of volunteers with 600 cadets and 150 staff from 71 units attending this year in support of the RAF Charitable Trust.

Cadets helped out everywhere from admissions, company enclosures and grandstands to the main arena, aircrew flight centre and crowd line control. Twelve high-performing RIAT first-timers under 15 years of age will be selected at RIAT 2009 for the coverted “Red Sparrows” Award. Each cadet will be presented with a special Red Sparrows Cap, T-shirt and medal before watching the departing aircraft from the ATC Tower and touring visiting aircraft.

Full coverage of RIAT 2009 will be in the September/October edition of Air Cadet Magazine.
