Our Bader Braves Flying Days Co-odinator, Keith Delderfield, has now finalised the Bader Braves Young Aviators Day Programme for 2019. We are delighted to announce that we’ll be offering 11 Young Aviators Days this year and the regulars amongst you will note that as well as some old favourites, there are 2 brand new venues, allowing us to reach even more Braves across the UK. As always, you’ll find the individual events complete with application forms in the Events section of the website and these will also be flagged up close to individual dates. One change to note is that this year, in order to simplify the huge amount of admin required for the organisation involved in holding a Young Aviators Day, we will be closing entries on the Friday 3 weeks before the event. With so many days now on offer and often on consecutive weekends, we regret that this has become necessary. So in order to avoid disappointment, please apply promptly once you’ve decided which event you’d like to attend. We will update where possible if places are running out. It should also be noted that should we have to cancel or postpone of one of our Young Aviators Days we will do our best to give as much notice as possible. In the event of unexpected bad weather or other unforeseen circumstances, we will act on the advice of the controlling bodies of the airfield concerned and it is not always possible to give as much warning as we would like. We hope you’ll understand that the safety and enjoyment of our Braves and their families is always our first concern and cancellations and postponements will only happen when there is no alternative. You will find the dates of our Young Aviators Days below and information and Application Forms for each individual day will be found on the Events Page of the Bader Braves section of the website.
