| Welcome to RAFvirtual 1 EFTS Cranwell |
CFS maintains standards of flying and flying instruction on fixed and rotary wing aircraft.
Instructor training itself has been collocated with aircraft type: Firefly and King Air at RAFv Cranwell, Squirrel at RAFv Shawbury, Tucano at RAFv Linton-on-Ouse and Hawk at RAFv Valley.
RAFvirtual 1 EFTS provides the first stage of BASIC flying training for RAFvirtual pilots. At the end of this syllabus, pilots are streamed for further training in the fast jet, rotary wing or multi-engine stream.
The aircraft used for this training is the Firefly T67, a single-engined light aircraft supplied for the purpose.
The flying syllabus contains all the elements needed for further training at the advanced schools, this includes basic navigation, ILS Approach landings, missed approaches and basic emergency procedures using full ATC radio comms.
Although limited to 30 Nm around RAFvirtual Cranwell the trainee will find plenty to keep themselves busy with practicing the manouvers laid down by the instructors.
We hope you will enjoy your short stay with us 1EFTS.
