Each squadron consists of members who participate in activities like search and rescue missions, promoting aviation and leadership skills, and community service. The squadrons are organized into groups and wings, allowing for efficient coordination and training. Members include cadets, who are typically young people, and adult volunteers from various backgrounds who work together to enhance their skills and serve their communities.
