Flight Sergeant Chris Harding


Flight Sergeant Chris Harding joined 211 (Newbury) Sqn as a cadet in the mid 90's and attained the rank of Cadet Flight Sergeant. He made the most of his time at cadets by attending as many activities as possible. He achieved Best First Year Cadet, was in the winning March & Shoot inter services team, organised many field craft activities and loved going shooting.

F/Sgt Harding has been a staff member on several units over recent years, including 1996 (Earley) and 381 (Reading) before taking up a new challenge at 2402 (Burghfield) Sqn in Sept 2010. As a staff member he has continued to enjoy a wide variety of events, but his passion is with Adventure Training. He has achieved instructional qualifications in Walking (BELA), Climbing (SPA) and most recently Kayaking/Canoeing as a BCU Level 1 Coach. He loves to put these into action on Wing AT weeks in North Wales and the Lake District as well as Sqn organised activities.

As a day job F/Sgt Harding works in "IT", He likes to think of himself as low in the "Geek" grade but others would disagree (his Wife for starters!)
