Welcome

Welcome to the home of No 30 (Hobsonville) Squadron, Air Training Corps. Established in November of 1968, No 30 (Hobsonville) Squadron Air Training Corps has been training young people in aviation, military knowledge, bushcraft, weapons training, leadership, first aid and life skills for the past 40 years.

Squadron News

The staff of 30 Squadron would like to wish all cadets their families and supporters a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We hope you all have a safe and relaxing holiday and come back refreshed for another action pack year with us. For those cadets who are moving on we wish you luck in your future endeavors and hope you can come back and visit sometime in the future.
