Scuba-Diving

by Flying Officer Andy Faulkner

Blue – The colour that symbolises the ATC and RAF, in terms of blue sky and blue uniform – Now the blue sea too!

Here at 967 Sqn, we encourage young people of all backgrounds to challenge themselves and help them to develop their social and life experience.

From a single trial dive experiencing a different world underwater whilst in the safety of a swimming pool surrounded by qualified instructors, to completing the full PADI Open Water Divers course – allowing the graduate to dive anywhere in the world, the world truly is their oyster.

But Why Dive?

Escape to a different world. Scuba takes you to a different world with new colours, shapes, textures and creatures – a world where the roles you play take on a new dimension. Become a scuba diver and escape to a peaceful place to renew your energy and excite your senses.

Explore new places. Scuba diving frees you to explore the underwater world – from historic shipwrecks and pristine reefs to the mysteries of your local quarry. Become a scuba diver and explore what you’ve been missing.

Experience a connection with nature; a feeling of freedom, and a transformation. Diving connects you with nature. It immerses you in new sensations and experiences. It transforms your perception of life forever. Become a diver and transform yourself.

Evolve to new levels of confidence; learning to dive gives people a great sense of personal competence and confidence. In today’s fast paced life where experiences are more often more important than qualification, diving can open a world of doors.
