Construction work at RAF Valley is progressing well as we enter the summer months. Both the new Squadron building and the aircraft hangar main steel structure have been erected and hangar roof and external wall cladding installations are now under way. The current programme schedule forecasts that both buildings will be completely watertight by early 2010 with first fix mechanical and electrical service installation starting towards the end of this year.
The Squadron building will be used as a state of the art training school which will incorporate the latest technology in simulators and flying training devices to support the development of Fast Jet Pilots for the Royal Air Force and the Royal Navy. The Squadron building will also support flight planning and will provide an operations hub for the fleet of Hawk Mk.T2 aircraft. The hangar will be used to house and maintain the aircraft.
