Flight Drill
Conditions: A Flight must consist of at least thirteen (13) members, including not
more than one (1) Sergeant and three (3) Corporals. A maximum of nine (9)
Leading Cadets are permitted to compete in Flight Drill. If a Sergeant is not
available, a Squadron Sergeant may act as the N.C.O. in charge.
Procedure: N.C.O.-in-charge having arranged the Flight in a straight line, will then
report to the Uniform Judge, giving the name of the Squadron. On completion of
the uniform judging, the N.C.O.-in-charge will report back to the Uniform Judge.
On the Judge’s instruction to proceed the N.C.O.-in-charge will report to the Static
Judge, giving the name of the Squadron and fall-in the flight in accordance with the ‘Fall-In’ procedure, except there will be no ’Open Order March’ for inspection as it
has already been carried out.
On completion of the fall-in, the N.C.O.-in-charge
will again report to the Static Judge, and on the Judge’s instruction proceed to
march the unit to the position indicated on the appropriate diagram for field judging.
N.C.O.-in-charge will report to the Field Judge, giving the name of the Squadron,
then move to their correct position and give the necessary commands for the field
competition movements.
On completion of the field competition movements,
N.C.O.-in-charge will again report to the Field Judge, then march the unit off the
competition area.
Note: N.C.O.-in-charge should stand in the centre of the competition area for field
judging, but may move closer to the Flight if necessary for commands to be heard.
