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 the Duke of Edinburgh's Award: learning new skills and making new friends. 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!

Biggin Hill - Just “Plane” Scorching!

With a top quality line up and warm summer conditions, the stage was set for a fantastic Biggin Hill Airshow - and for the cadets of 1921 Sqn, it didn’t disappoint!

With amazing aircraft on display in the air and on the ground, and a wide variety of stalls and supporting displays, the cadets had a fantastic day in the sun. As well as watching the world-famous Red Arrows, and the iconic Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, the cadets were also treated to the return of the Vulcan aircraft to the display circuit.
