Is 16 too old to join the Air Cadets?

Question

I know it's ages 13-18 but just wondering if it's kind of too late?

Answer 1

Its never to late,  we have them come visit our base all the time, we do look at the older ones a bit funny cos at 18 you can join up for real.  Its a good way to get a taster for the air force, without having to make a big commitment.  If you do join up after, tell nobody that you were in the cadets cos they will rip you, and I know some RAF lads who volunteer for helping the cadets who are total *****, dont think everyone is like that as its a good laugh! Good luck.

Answer 2

Hello, I'm 13 and go to air cadets. Is 16 to old to join? No its not  its never to late to join, it says 13-18 for a reason. It would have been better to have joined before 15. But get some details and go down to your nearest squadron.
