The Squadron paraded with the procession watched by a crowd of thousands - the biggest in the carnivals history - through the centre of Ilkley to East Holmes Playing Field to the carnival.
At the Squadrons stall on the field there was the usual tombola - run by the Squadrons civilian committee - as well as recruitment display boards set up by Cadet Corporal Lisa Whitaker and a cake stall run by Mrs Whitaker.
The Squadron also held a collection for RAFA during the day with a 'name the bear' competition as well as selling pin badges.
Another fundraiser was the 'Guess the weight of the rucksack competition'.
As with last year three cadets were asked to accompany Cllr Heathcliffe Bowen, Chairman of Ilkley Parish Council as his equerries for the day.
Overall the day was a huge success and the cadets, staff and civilian committee were a huge credit to the Squadron.
