  • DIO Hands Over Technical Support Accommodation at RAF Lossiemouth
    DIO hands over technical support accommodation at RAF Lossiemouth The Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO) has handed over a new airside annexe as part of a project to support the relocation of three squadrons of Typhoon aircraft from RAF Leuchars to RAF Lossiemouth. The new annexe to Hangar 3 houses operations briefing rooms, mission planning, changing rooms, aircrew lockers, equipment servicing space and the aircraft line operations. It is also home to the engineering ground crew and support trades. Since 2012, DIO has delivered around £87 million of work at RAF Lossiemouth, including refurbishing Hangar 1, and refurbishing and extending the annexe accommodation for 6 Squadron, refurbishing Hangar 3 and providing interim accommodation for 1 (Fighter) Squadron and building a high quality Quick Reaction Alert. By using a staged approach, the works package was able to provide both interim and permanent operational and engineering support facilities for both 6 Squadron and 1 (Fighter) Squadron on their arrivals at RAF Lossiemouth in March 2014 and September 2014. Duncan Taylor, the DIO Project Manager, said: “This is a great example of DIO investing in the infrastructure our Armed Forces need to live, train and deploy. It was a real team effort and our contractor Turners worked closely with us to ensure a very high quality of work. The pace of construction and quality of the end product reflected excellent project management, and stakeholder and contractor communications." Wing Commander Chantal Baker, Officer Commanding Base Support Wing, said: “The programme of infrastructure works at RAF Lossiemouth has been essential to the transition of the Station from a Tornado to Typhoon main operating base delivering Quick Reaction Alert.

    Combined Cadet Force Royal Air Force A Commissioning Aide Memoire for the Officer Cadre Version 1 “Where else could you learn to fly aerobatics, visit Royal Air Force Stations, tour foreign countries, play sports from local to international level, learn the skills to lead expeditions, become a target shooting marksman, gain your Duke of Edinburgh Awards, canoe through white water, assist your community, join a band, learn aviation subjects, go caving, parachute, climb, sail, ski...? These and much more are readily available to you as a member of the Air Cadet Organization.” Air Commodore Jon Chitty OBE. Introduction The school cadet organisation originates from 1859, when schools at Eton, Harrow, Rugby, Rossall, Felsted, Hurstpierpoint, Winchester and Tonbridge formed armed uniformed units as part of a national reserve to counter a perceived threat from abroad. By 1900, cadet units were established in over 100 schools across the country and in 1908, these units were re-titled the Officer Training Corps (OTC). In 1948, the OTC was renamed the Combined Cadet Force. The aim of the Combined Cadet Force is to provide a framework through which young people develop the qualities of team work, self-reliance, resourcefulness, leadership and responsibility. A weekly programme of military training is designed to give young people at King’s a chance to exercise responsibility and leadership, to provide them with knowledge of our defence forces, and to encourage those who might be interested in becoming officers of the Armed Services. Uniform members of the Combined Cadet Force will regularly stay on Royal Air Forces bases, therefore it is important that cadets are able to demonstrate an awareness of the structure and organisation of the Royal Air Force, its role in the defence of the United Kingdom and her interests and the operations in which the Royal Air Force are currently engaged.
