Very interesting video Gordy.

I certainly recommend watching it and it mentions Everett, who was (according to the video) the first Hurricat pilot to shoot down a Condor. Another Australian first.

Yes it sounds very interesting the MSFU.

Also Bob Everett wasn't a young man when he shot down that Condor and when he died. 40 yo in both cases.

I bet there is a story there about him just becoming a pilot at that age. I mean Caldwell had to try several tricks to get in as a pilot and he was nearly 10 years younger than Everett.
