The term "aviation cadet" itself is not typically part of idiomatic expressions. However, the concept of a "cadet" is often used in military or educational contexts as a term reflecting one's training status or progress. Here are some idiomatic expressions that involve the idea of training or learning:

The term "aviation" originates from the Latin word "avis," meaning "bird," along with the suffix "-ation," which denotes an action or process. The word "cadet" comes from the French word "cadet," which means "younger" or "junior," and is derived from the Latin "capitellum," meaning "little head" or "young man."
