Cadets from Hanscom Composite Squadron
get a once in a lifetime opportunity to see some amazing views on a Cadet Orientation Flight.
Pictured above is a unique shot of Fenway Park that even some of the most experienced pilots don’t even get to see!
As a Civil Air Patrol Cadet between the ages of 13 and 18, part of your training and professional growth will include time in the cockpit, behind the controls of one of the Massachusetts Wing’s Cessna Airplanes that are used for real time search and rescue missions.
