Aeromodelling Competition 2009

On the 27th of August and 4th of September, 14 of our cadets from Part A, B and C took part in the Aeromodelling Competition organized by HQ NCC, a competition unique to NCC (Air) as part of its air syllabus. Teams were sent in for the Remote Control Flying category, Line Control Flying category for Part B and C cadets as well as the Aircraft Design Category for the Part A cadets.

In the Remote Control Category, participants had to fly a plane in a flight simulator and pop balloons generated by the simulator and also guide the plane into a perfect landing on a runway. The line control category required participants to fly against a competitor in the same flying circle and at the same time, complete a fixed number of rounds. The aircraft design category tested the creativity of the part A cadets as they had to build a model airplane based on creativity and do a short presentation on their plane.

SJI NCC (Air) has emerged 5th overall in this competition. Much time and effort has been put into the competition and we would like to acknowledge the cadets who have done us proud. We would also like to thank our teachers-in-charge, Mr Mok and Mr Ho for their utmost support and guidance in this competition, as well as the supporters from SJI NCC(Air) for their undying support for us during the competition.
