The information on this page is aimed at parents, carers and Cadets so that they can be fully informed as to the requirements of the Air Training Corps in relation to fitness to fly as well as the consents that are required.
A Consent Form Av Med 1 is now required for each occasion a Cadets goes flying or gliding.
If, during the completion of this form a medical condition is highlighted then guidance is provided on the form. Sadly, this may mean the Cadet may be unable to fly or they may need a Doctor to sign a further consent form known as the Medical Declaration Form F6424.
Consent Forms
Paper copies are normally available on the Squadron, however, if you forget to pick one up you can print them out from the BADER website – see the Useful Resources box on the lower left hand side of the BADER web page.
