Leuchars: Increase in Day/Night Flying
Exercise Kukri Dan
Between late January and mid-February, military training will take place across Scotland as part of Exercise Kukri Dawn. Activity will be particularly noticeable in areas around Leuchars Station, inc. periods of low-level helicopter flying during the day and at night. The ability to operate effectively at low level is essential for military helicopters in their role supporting troops on the ground. Realistic low-level training in the UK is therefore a vital part of preparing aircrew for operational duties. Military helicopters will avoid overflying horse riders wherever possible, provided riders can be identified in sufficient time and it is safe to do so. Aircrew are trained to identify and avoid potential conflicts however sudden or aggressive manoeuvring close to riders can significantly increase the risk of disturbance. If riders are seen late, helicopters will usually continue on a steady flight path rather than manoeuvre as this is considered the safest option for both riders and aircrew. Local residents, farmers, and equestrian communities may experience increased noise and military activity during this period. While all training is carefully planned and conducted safely, we would like to highlight potential impacts on people, animals, and rural activity.

Bovington: Military coworking network CV writing online event - Wed 28th Jan.
We’ve got the fantastic Jenny from @militaryspouseworks joining us this week for a CV workshop - if you’ve been around for a while you’ll know exactly how amazing she is so if a new job is on the cards for this year you definitely need to come along.
Jenny will cover the basics of what to include in a CV, but she'll focus on how you describe your skills and experience in a way that makes an impact on the reader, as well as formatting/layout that can help with this. Jenny will also talk about how to outline transferable skills - particularly important for anyone returning after a break or who has had a lot of short-term roles (#MilitaryLife).
Remember, totally free for all members (free to sign up!) just head over to the website!
