Thanks to the Fleet Air Arm Association of Australia (via Kas Grigonis) I have added withdrawal dates for the Seahawk Bravos and delivery dates for the Seahawk Romeos
I have also added a listing of some of the Bromeo training aids although there is confusion over the identity of one
There is another ex-USN example that was imported for fatigue testing that we have no details on.(Photo below)

A100 itself may never be issued and is more likely to be skipped due to the data field limitations in the system that manages the military registrations!

So after A99 - we may be back to A1 (unless the system changes by then).

Some more tinkering with the CT-4 page and gallery links.

Updated Falcon 7X page but still waiting on some photos of A56-001's arrival in Canberra that we can add to our gallery

QUOTE (Shep @ Apr 30 2019, 09:22 AM)
There isn't any visible evidence that the image "A19-192" is actually that airframe.  Several MkX's carried the Tigers Face marking.  Whilst you haven't claimed it to be so, I thought I'd take this opportunity to also point out that even though A19-192/EH-T is often claimed to have been "Pistol Packin Momma", there doesn't seem to be any proof that it actually was - again the presence of a tigers face doesn't cut it because several aircraft carried that marking before the arrival of Mk21's.

Thanks Shep! Will update appropriately.
