Following recent graduation from @QAIC_RAFAC Crs14, Cdt Sgt Jacob Cooper isn't letting the grass grow under his feet. Jacob has just gone solo on an #AirCadetPilotScheme course @taysideaviation after 12hrs of flying - impressive given he can't drive a car yet! #RAFAC #WhatWeDo

Congrats to Cdt Sgt Cooper graduating from @qaic_rafac Crse 14 this week at RAF Cranwell, after 6 months training on the prestigious QAIC Course (usually selects no more than 40 cdts/year from across UK). Little Sqn like 2246 punching above its weight nationally. Superb Jacob!

In October 2021, Cdt Sgt Jacob Cooper was selected for the prestigious Qualified Aerospace Instructors Course (joining #QAIC Crse 14). Jacob is at RAF Cranwell this week for final training/assessment and fingers crossed, will graduate with the coveted blue lanyard this weekend!
