The RAST qualifier involved the cadets being assessed in:

Flight Lieutenant Macklin said:
"I am immensely proud of the cadets and the work they have put in to preparing for this competition. The training for this has been led by the cadets and the time they have dedicated to it has been well rewarded. I look forward to watching them compete on the national stage."
Well done team!
