No AP-3's in sight.

I was recently in Adelaide and took a trip to Elizabeth where RAAF Edinburgh is located. Upon arrival I was dissappointed to find that the base is located behind a man made mound, with tree’s firmly planted on top that are not only dence, but about 8 metres tall. I asked a local for some info on where to get a good look at the airfield, only to be toldthat it’s like that the whole way around the base, and that the trees have only been there for the past two years!

Concidering that the first AP-3 was supposed to be delivered two years ago, I’d really like to know is….

What has the RAAF got to hide?

How do they differ from the P-3C’s that we are upgrading from?

And, why have two of the five already received already been deployed to the Gulf for support in the “War on Terror”?

It really sounds to me like the US is trying to build up the ADF so that they can pull out of our region!

Leave no-one behind!
