Thanks Cooda. Long history of ADF personnel in our family, proud to see the young bloke continue that. He already has a number of mates (he's a good networker) at ADFA already giving him the good oil.
My young bloke has just this week received his offer for pilot officer. He heads off to ADFA in January. He's always known he wanted to be a pilot. He started flying at 14 (just turned 18). Australian Air Force Cadet of the year last year. A bit proud myself.
I have purchased a SJS 1500 kit last year to help through the cold starts down south here. Connected to Anderson plugs on the cowling. Worked well. Got us started a few times with no fuss.
