On Sunday 17th May a small contingent of advanced cadets deployed to Heli Solutions in Palmerston North for a flight in a Robinson R22 helicopter.
The cadets were taken through a briefing, pre-flight checks and then took turns to head for the skies. Some flew along the river whilst others flew up and checked out the windfarm but all had a chance to practice hovering back at the airport before their lesson came to an end.
