@SpicyLuckster 4.3 years ago there weren't any re-sizable wheels yet.
Why did you put wheels on wheels?
@Moronindustries Thanks

@pilot186 Mhm Domics
@pilot186 Until your older, Sometimes they let you fly the Cessna for a very short bit when you fam flying but that's it.
@pilot186 Cadets don't fly this aircraft, it's more of a acrobatic aircraft. As far as Canadian Air Cadets go, you can only start flying around the age of 15/16. There's Powered and Gliders, Powered is the Cessna 172 and Gliders is the Schweizer SGS 2-33. When you younger you can participate in Familiarization flights where you ride with a certified pilot, there's also gliding days when you get taken up in a glider by a a certified pilot or a certified Cadet getting their flight hours.
Amazing plane really fun to do stunts with
That's great, but I was thinking it was only aerospatial, but it's not. It's also with control towers (I don't know in English how the people that work on control towers are called), and aicraft maintenance, along with aerospatial. I've done it and it's great but there is many theory, and I don't know your age, but cadets that does BATAC are generally around 13-14 years old. Well, I don't know, program may vary between Alberta and Quebec, but that's what I've experienced at Bagotville
@Lolivier BATAC I think
What are you gonna apply for this summer? I'm thinking of CASA since last summer I've did BATAC camp, pretty cool
@Lolivier Yeh we go there for Summer Training
Before 2000 we used to be something like 80-90... There are some unified squadrons in the region like the air/army cadets squadron 92/2864 but nothing like two air squadrons, it's the first time I've heard this (there are some army cadets squadrons and one navy cadet squadron but mainly air squadrons)... In fact if you know Bagotville, my squadron is pretty near to it. Are you near of Cold Lake?
@Lolivier Corporal we used to be more before 2000. There's some other squadrons in our city but the 64 squadron and 781 both split off from us. 781 is almost as big as well.
"Only about 110 show up every week"
Damn, even in old times we weren't as much... What is your grade? I'm flight caporal (should be sergeant but I started cadets late)
@Lolivier over 150 not including officers xD but usually only about 110 show up every week
That's great, I'm in Quebec; how much are you in your squadron? We're maybe 26, no more, including officers
@Lolivier Alberta
52 air cadet squadron is in what province, I'm in 766 RCAC air cadet squadron
Really fun to fly and beautiful, really neat I like it
@tera1587 RCAC 52
@DeezDucks are you in the American or British air cadets? I'm in the royal air force Air cadets at 1372 squadron
@SpiritusRaptor ty
