Welcome to 1921

1921 Squadron is friendly and exciting Air Cadet Squadron, serving the Lewisham area. Our cadets take part in a range of activities and adventure training which are out of this world — where else could you learn to fly a plane before you can drive a car? Cadets aged 13 to 18 are regularly involved in flying, gliding, adventure training, shooting, sports and gaining qualifications with the Duke of Edinburgh's Award and BTEC courses. You could be too!

All enquiries and questions can be directed to the Officer Commanding or the website team via the contacts page.

We hope to see you on the Squadron!
