We do not record the numbers of Air Cadets that join or leave per year. However, we publish statistics on the total number of air cadets in both the Air Training Corps and Combined Cadet Force (RAF) sections. For the last five years the total number of cadets in both organisations combined is as follows:

2017 - 39,020

2016 - 40,750

2015 - 41,430

2014 - 42,280

2013 - 42,920
