Jointly organized by Dragonair and Hong Kong Air Cadet Corps and supported by the Hong Kong Observatory, Civil Aviation Department, Airport Authority Hong Kong, Aviation Security Company Limited, the Government Flying Service, Hong Kong Aircraft Engineering Company Ltd and the Hong Kong Airport Services Ltd, the "Dragonair Aviation Certificate Programme 2010" was launched in late April. Sixteen cadets of the Hong Kong Air Cadet Corps joined the eight-month programme this year. As in the past, the Observatory will continue to render full support to the programme by providing basic training on aviation weather observation and forecasting and allowing each participant to work at the Airport Meteorological Office to gain experience of the work of meteorological personnel.
