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.

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 morningā¦ Chinooks up to 1700ā (as per FR24)
As per the timetable on the SMS application, the flying was meant to stop after lunch anyway.

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¦

Here are the NOTAMs for Cosford today
So 1400Z - 1640Z formation flights followed by parachute display 1600Z - 1630Z
So 3hrs 10min of available timeā¦ 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?
