The Civil Air Patrol van or the main means of transportation (besides the CAP owned aircraft) for Civil Air Patrol Cadets. The vans usually sit up to 11 people comfortablly and usually are the rides to competitions, activities, beacon searchs, missions, etc. The CAP van is often compared to the band bus or the marching band bus simply because of the usage and the events that occur in the van. Uniform changes, practical jokes, games, you name it.
Cadet 1: "What happened on the CAP van that everyone is talking about?"

Cadet 2: "You don't want to know..."

Example 2

Cadet Lieutenant: "Listen motards, pile into the van asap. We're doing a beacon search."
