Gooey,
Yeah right - because the GA8 is such a well known load carrier with its 891kg capacity (see Gipps aero website). And that ramp to aid loading and unloading....
As to the comment about those who really know how to operate the Chooks - Pfft. The air liason bloke I went bush with (A RAAF fighter pilot) didn't even have the first idea what went in his backpack when he was issued it. What makes you think that the RAAF know more about army ops than say...Ohhh, the army?
