Hi all , heading to boscombe down in a couple of weeks for camp . Anyone who has been what’s it like? . And any idea what accommodation is like?
Accommodation is good, it’s dedicated for cadets, as it’s a Regional Activities Centre as well as bolted onto the back of a WHQ.
2AEF is based there along with QinetiQ so there is normally something interesting going on, during the week flying wise.
How many to a room do you know?
It varies, there are some double rooms, and some with 4,6 or 8 iirc
Last time I was there (March I think) there were beds and bed frames EVERYWHERE. As I understand it the plan was to increase the occupancy of every single room from two to four (barring the end room which has four bunk beds anyway). The accommodation is pretty good all in all, it’s the march to the mess that’s the killer!
