Dining-in, Enrolment & Presentation Evening 2019

Our annual dining-in, enrolment and presentation evening will be held at Squadron HQ, Laindon Road on Saturday 9th March.

Cadets will be bringing home an invite letter.

As we have a much bigger squadron this year we are having to limit initial allocations to 2 guests per cadet. Further places may be available if not all are taken up in the initial phase.

Please see the invite letter & request form for details.

A copy of the invite letter can be found here: Dining-In 2019 Invite Letter

Initial returns are requested no later than Friday 15th February

Apologies for the short turn-around time, but we only received confirmation of availability of the venue very recently and given the two-phase approach to guest place allocation this year, we must move quickly!

AEF Saturday 02 FEB 19

The 5AEF answer machine message states that morning flying has been cancelled, however, no decision has yet been made on afternoon flying. 

This means you will still need to travel to Hutton Squadron as briefed.

There is the potential that you might start your journey only to be turned-around en-route. Or... you might still get some flying !!
