Episode 69 - Noel Kruse Part Ten - Caribou Conversion!

[Dave Homewood]

The Wings Over New Zealand Show Episode 69 - Noel Kruse Part Ten is now online. In another instalment of the life of pilot Noel Kruse we hear about his posting to No. 38 Squadron RAAF, where he converted onto the ubiquitous de Havilland Canada DHC-4 Caribou. This famous transport aircraft could fly loads into the most remote places, and Noel's conversion to the type saw him flying around Australia and then up to Papua New Guinea.

Nice work once again & congrats to you both for doing this series. Definitely a favourite

While I'm waiting to hear about setting up his flight school, for the "now" I'm looking forward to hearing his operational Caribou stories, especially relating to the "Goat track" navigation path into one landing spot and his views on the Caribou Wheel Barrow routine (always a crowd favourite at air shows )
