| I joined Edenbridge air cadets in June 2000, and since then have done some brilliant and truly amazing things. |
| I have flown an aircraft, been on the 'Three Peaks Challenge', and have helped with the cadets' winning float at the Edenbridge Bonfire Society's parade. |

| A brilliant aircraft, and great fun to fly. I now have 100 minutes of flight experience. |
| Whilst in the aircraft, the pilot showed me some aerobatics, we pulled three G! We did stall turns, 'loop the loops' and hard turns. While in the plane, and pulling a fantastic 3g, I tried to lift my arms, but they actually weighed 3 times what they normally do! |

| The cadets and me on top of Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in Scotland, and in the whole of the UK! It was very foggy on top of Ben Nevis (we were in the clouds!) and there was even a huge lump of snow on the North face, where the sun doesn't shine! |
