Pretty rubbish for the Cadets who arrived at the pick up point at 05:20 to get there today.
Some had a half hour journey to get there too.

Welcome to the cluster
Please tell me this isnāt true⦠cadets in our wing had a crazy early start and a long drive.
Certainly donāt see anything in the air on FR24
The omnishambles cluster muster which keeps on giving!
If thatās really the case I get the feeling that it may be the nail on the coffin for a number of cadets who decide to go and do something else with their time
Wonāt be just cadets.
The grief itās been to get our handful of cadets there - I can see why weāve historically had a turnover of wing staff.
All that grief, to just upset the cadets and staff that go.
Shouldnāt have bothered.
Everyone needs to voice their complaints up through the CoC.
Photos on the RAF Cosford twitter page makes it look like there is flying happening.

Iāve certainly not heard anything negative yet from the staff from my squadron who are there.
Anyone here actually got eyes on?
There certainly was flying this morning⦠Chinooks up to 1700ā (as per FR24)
As per the timetable on the SMS application, the flying was meant to stop after lunch anyway.
I thought Iād seen that somewhere ⦠but I couldnāt remember where
Might have stopped flying, as they are due aircraft flypasts, RAFAT, etc.
Anyone know anyone actually there who can get accurate info?
Raging at rumours isnāt helpfulā¦
Iāve been talking to my Wingās Coach IC. his response when I asked how it was going was āAbsolute clusterā
The ubiquity of that word in this organisation⦠Even cadets were using it over on Discord.
Here are the NOTAMs for Cosford today
So 1400Z - 1640Z formation flights followed by parachute display 1600Z - 1630Z
So 3hrs 10min of available time⦠not available.
Not exactly brilliant.
With the event still in draft I wonder if any VA Days will be paid out? Maybe itās a cost saving idea, not approved - canāt pay!
Thatās why itās a full 8 hour day no?
