Field Training Exercise (FTX)

Field Training Exercise

Field Training Exercises (FTX) are a part of the Air Cadet training. These exercises are held on select weekends and the type and location will vary. The nature and complexity of the exercises also vary depending on the cadet training level to which they are targeted. These are always fun events that are thoroughly enjoyed by cadets, who learn new aircrew survival skills during their Field Training Exercise.

Cadets learned how to build a fire, proper shelter, survival psychology and even had the chance to sleep in the shelters they built. Beyond building camaraderie, morale and friendships, these cadets built their own shelters, fires and are learning new skills that will help them in the future. The Cadet Program offers unique experiences you cannot get anywhere else. They participate in a Field Training Exercise where they are learning how to build a fire, proper shelters, survival psychology and friendships that will last them a life-time.
