Those experiences shaped the airmanship that helped him transition to the Hornet.We discuss the RAAF training pipeline, Hornet conversion, Australian fighter culture, BFM, early AMRAAM integration, operating without Link 16 or an IFF interrogator, exchange pilots from the US, UK and Canada, flying against MiG-29s and F-15s, and the Hornet Upgrade Program that transformed the aircraft after his departure.
