Gliding "paused"

Also, what on earth is this “Aaron Aerospace Academy” that was due to open in 2019?

In addition to imporoved aerospace-focused annual camps and changes to the cadet syllabus in space and cyber to bring exciting opportunities to undertake practical training, the RAF is partnering with the Aviation Skills Partnership to support the development of state-of-the-art Aerospace Academies. The first of these, the Aaron Aerospace Academy, is due to break ground at RAF Syerston lkater this year.

From what I can tell this was supposed to have been open in 2019 and has presumeably suffered the normal delays. I’m not clear how the cadets benefit from this though, other than 2FTS getting shiny new offices . . .
