Those two episodes were fantastic. Noel had me laughing out loud about learning to fly with the RAAF and flying the Vampire alsogetting chased by an instructor, him on foot and the instructor in a Winjeel!!
He also raises some good points about instructing and the differences between military and civilian.
Well worth a listen.
