Field Training Exercises are a part of the mandatory training for Air Cadets. This means that cadets must attend at least one of the FTX weekends in order to meet the training requirements. We are hopeful that we will be able to offer another FTX in the spring in addition to this one.
These exercises are held on select weekends and the type and location will vary. The nature and complexity of the exercises also vary depending on the cadet training level to which they are targeted.
In previous years, FTX has been overnight events, but we aren’t able to do that at this time. Cadets will need to be picked up and dropped off each day.
These are always fun events that are thoroughly enjoyed by all the cadets.
Cadets can sign up for the FTX on the signup sheet located by the doors of the parade square at Tuesday’s training.
DATE: October 16 & 17, 2021
TIME: Drop off time is 0900 and pick up time is 1630.
LOCATION: The Canadian Armed Forces Experimental Testing Range in Nanoose Bay.

The Kit List will be sent out at a later date.
