AERO MODELING:
Aero modeling is very essential for our unit as it is AIR WING ,we sure a control line model which is aerobatics advanced aerobatics model. They flow with help of cables.
SKEET SHOOTING:
It is essential to know skeet shooting as an NCC CADET. We have to get practice with rifles involves shooting at a specified target
.LINE AREA:
It is nothing but building tent. In defence ,we have to build the tent within 8 mins using the given material.
HEALTH AND HYGIENE:
Hygiene means all matters concerning health of himself. It covers physical and mental health.
Firing
Cadets of our college underwent Range Firing and Skeet Shooting training in Air Force Station, Thambaram. Under the guidance of the trainers each cadet was trained to handle and fire the riffles and double barrel gun .The different positions of handling the riffle was thought to the cadets. The spirit of handling the loaded riffle was really awesome. Each cadet was given ten rounds for Range Firing and three rounds for Skeet Shooting. The training being considered as one of the memorable moment.
The competitor should load the rifle with five rounds to be fired in the competitor's own time. The first and third shots are taken in the prone position and the second and fourth standing. The Firing Range space types are special indoor facilities used to train and certify federal law enforcement personnel in the use of handguns, shotguns, rifles, etc. Firing Range space types include backstops, shooting booths or firing points/positions, target carrier systems, firing range control centers, spaces related to the use, cleaning, and storage of firearms—which may require special ballistic, hazardous material, and security measures—and toilet and shower facilities.
Skeet Shooting
Skeet is a recreational and competitive activity where participants attempt to break clay disks flung into the air at high speed from a variety of angles. For the American version of the game, the clay discs are 4 5/16 inches (109.54mm) in diameter, 1 1/8 inches (28.57mm) thick, and fly a distance of 60 yards (+/- 2 yards). The international version of skeet uses a target that is slightly larger in diameter (110mm vs 109.54mm), thinner in cross section (25mm vs. 28.57mm), and has a thicker dome center, making it harder to break.
International targets are also thrown a longer distance from similar heights (over 70 yards), resulting in a faster target speed.
The firearm of choice for this task is usually a high quality, double-barreled over and under shotgun with 28/30 inch barrels and open chokes. Some gun shops refer to this type of shotgun as a skeet gun. Alternatively a sporting gun or a trap gun are sometimes used. These have longer barrels up to 34 inch and tighter choke. Many shooters of American skeet and other national versions still use inexpensive semi-auto and pump action shotguns with great success. The use of clay targets replaced the more traditional target of live birds, as a cheaper, more humane and more reliable alternative, one reason they are also called clay pigeons.
Parasailing
Para sailing classes was held for our college students in Air Force Station, Thambaram. Under the guidance of well trained officers and trainers cadets were given opportunity to sail in air. The physical ability of each cadet was checked and then they were allowed to attend the Parasailing class. As climatic condition was favorable the cadets were able to sail for more than 30mins. One of the most dangerous adventurous activities made a unforgettable moment of flying in air in each and every cadet mind. PARA-SAILING is one of the fastest growing sports in the nation, and you can join in the fun. Although recreational para-sails have been around for more than 30 years, more efficient modern designs make it an ideal purchase for the family sport boat owner.
Gliding.
Gliding is the most appropriate and economic way of bringing aviation within the reach of a large number of cadets. As of today only 18 gliders are serviceable out of 40 Gliders. An Air Sqn has to achieve a target of 1000 launches by gliders and 200 hours of flying in Microlite in a year.
Microlite Flying.
Microlite Flying has been introduced in NCC as an adventure activity with a view to give air experience/trg to the NCC Cadets (SD/SW) of Air Wing. A total of 60 Zen-Air Microlites have been ordered with M/S Agni Aero Sports Aviation Academy (P) Ltd out of which 46 have been delivered and 14 are to be delivered soon.
Power Glider.
There is a proposal to introduce Power Gliding in the NCC. This has been agreed to in principle in the APC.
Aeromodelling.
Aeromodelling is the best way to demonstrate and understand how the forces of aerodynamics work on a flying wing (aerofoil). Aeromodelling is a vital link between the theory and practical flying training. Aeromodelling is divided in to two general categories of static and dynamic aeromodelling. In static aeromodelling, non-flying type aeromodels are made to a specific similar scale of the actual aeroplanes. In dynamic aeromodelling, the aeroplanes are made to fly with the help of small engine fixed on it or without it depending on whether the aeromodeller wants to display his skill on a power model or a gliding model. In any case, both types involve controlling through radio control. There is another type of non- control dynamic aeromodelling, where a powered aeromodel attached to a string is made to perform various manoeuvres.
Sea Training.
145 NCC Naval (SD)cadets and nine ANOs from all Dtes are imparted training at Mumbai and Visakhapatnam for a period of twelve days during Dec-Jan every year. During their training, intensive training in Naval subjects like Seamanship, Navigation, Communication, Gunnery, Damage control and Ship safety are imparted to the Naval cadets.
Sea Attachment.
150 NCC Naval SD Cadets and 10 ANOs are attached to various Naval Ships/Establishments at Mumbai and Kochi for a period of 12 days during May/Jun every year. This also gives the cadets opportunity to undergo an intensive training in Naval activities.
Naval Attachment.
This has been started since 2001, having been approved by NHQ. 25 SD cadets from all Dtes are attached every year for 12 days in Dec/Jan at the Naval Academy, INS Mandovi, Goa.
Coast Guard Sea Sortie.
Two coast guard sea sorties of one week duration each are conducted off Kerala Coast. Six SD cadets embark ship in each trip. Port of embarkation/disembarkation is Kochi.
Foreign Cruise-Naval.
Every year 20 SD cadets and two PI Staff are selected for foreign cruise which is organised on board ships of the 1st Training Squadron of the Indian Navy during Mar/Apr & Sep/Oct. Foreign Cruise gives the cadets an exposure of open seas for a longer duration and also an opportunity to interact with foreign nationals. This year 06 SD cadets embarked INS Krishna /Sharda for Srilanka & Male from 05 to 30 Mar 05 and 09 SD Cadets have embarked INS Tir for Abu Dhabi & Muscat on 15 Sep 05.
Foreign Cruise-Coast Guard.
This has commenced since 2001. The Govt has approved six NCC Naval cadets to proceed onboard CG ships. Unlike Naval ships which go on a cruise twice in a year, there is no regularity in the case of CG ships. This year 06 cadets will be embarking CG Ships on 25 Oct 05 for Japan and Korea cruise.
