Hey Bomber,

Just got the guff from the inside.....

Looks like they are staying with the N3's and that the old C model is being replaced with another new N3 (NVG compatible from factory). Also the rumour is that their AS350 is being replaced with a light twin (also to be NVG compatible).
As far as goggles the latest is that they have around 10 sets of ANVIS 9 goggles sitting in the store, have got their application with CASA and that it is all OK with CASA, just waiting for one of the N3's to be modified, which is in the process of being done. Once the cockpit is done the Air Wing is ready to start training all its pilots and crew....this is all the info I could get.
