Scout Aviation Weekend
The Aviation badge course was held at Broadstone Warren over the weekend of 8th - 10th May.
There were around 70 Scouts on camp with troops represented from East Sussex, Surrey and Croydon. There were 3 of us from 6th Brighton attending the course.
The course had some tests and lectures, but there were many highs on camp one of these was a visit to Shoreham Airport we got to go in the Danger Zone where we saw two helicopters and one aeroplane take off. We all got to go on the flight simulator which I nearly crashed the system for. We also had to learn the phonetic alphabet I found this pretty easy.
