Very nice. Interesting that Australia can only afford a few PC-9's for the Roulettes.

Singapore has slightly less personnel than the RAAF, and almost twice as many aircraft. I guess the budgets are different too.

the Singaporeans are a very small country and have neighbours who occasionally aren't terribly co-operative

therefore their sense of priorities is different
