Training – Types
To
achieve the above objectives, the 1 (TN) Air Sqn NCC provides two broad types
of training. One is the institutional training and the second aspect is Camp
training. The institutional training covers general subjects like drill, weapon
training, civil defense, health and hygiene, lessons in leadership, fitness and
basic knowledge of small firearms. Air subjects like the history of air power,
principle of flight, air armaments, Radio/Radar are also taught to make the Air
Wing cadets. Aero modeling is another favorite subject with the Air cadets. Air
cadets of this technical unit can take on gliding also during their training
with the NCC unit. The Camp training involves collective training, where the
cadets rough it out in the open. Here, the cadets gain the art of 'Esprit de
corps' while working in a team. The annual training camps are held in the
months of May/June and December/January and incorporate social service
activities. The Air Wing cadets are given the opportunity to attend the Vayu
Sainik and Attachment camps. The NCC aims to instill in the cadets a sense of
adventure, team work and discipline through its various Adventure Training
programmes. These programmes call for quick reflexes and toughness and enable
the cadets to discover their own potential by overcoming mental and physical
challenges. The Adventure Training includes a plethora of activities like
para-jumping, para-sailing, hand-gliding, water-skiing, horse-riding,
rock-climbing, mountaineering, trekking, sailing, micro-light flying and
sky-diving. Thus, the NCC helps instill a high sense of discipline, morals and
spirit of adventure in the life of students. The NCC office is located in the
NCC building inside the IIT Madras campus.
