(SITU) (rom HMAS ALBATROSS has deployed three 5-708·2 Seahawks 10 north Quet!Rliland for a lO-day comprehensive training detachment.
It included stopovers in Brisbane , Townsville and Cairns.
The detachment combined 60 hoursl35 days of instructional sorties into 30 hoursllO days of intensive training per aircraft.
The sorties included instrument flyi ng navigation, low-level visual navigation , tactical formation flying and radar largelling.
While at RAAF AMBERLEY near Brisbane training grounds in the local area were utilised for confined area operations, load lifting and search and rescue practice.
Once the stomping ground of the RAAF's Chinooks and Blackhawks, thcse now virtually unused areas provided ideal training grounds for the Seahawk crews.
During the ir time in Cairns, the Seahawks also provided weI winching practice for personnel from HMAS CAI RNS and VERTREP!transfer training sorties for the patrol boats LAUNCESTON and WHYALLA .
In addition to the operational pilot and observer training sorties, the three Seahawk crews had the unique opportunity to visit schools in the numerous towns and cities along the coast and inland regions.
With Queensland having a preponderance of Anny and Airforce bases it was a great publie relations opportunity for the Navy.
Scholarships The Seahawk crews had the privileged job of pre
senting a number of $1,000 ADFA scholatl;hips to successful high school students.
To say that many of the students were jealous of their peers receiving a scholatl;hip from the crew of a $40 million Navy helicopter which had just landed on their school oval would be a gross undetl;tatement!
The Seahawk detachment period coincided with the 50th anniversary of the Battle of the Coral Sea.
The three ai rcraft , Tigetl; 72, 82 and 83 flew a threeship fonnation at the Cairns Aitl;how and provided a static display for more than 9,000 visitors.

Customs history
The Customs Ilistory of Austrlliia 1788-1901 features in a new book "Smugglers lind Sailors".
By Dr David Day. it is an AGPS Press publication which tells the conflicts and the endurance of a selection of men and women who banled against human corruption and geographical vastness. in their st ruggle towards a society based ou European civilisation.
The work, to be published in early October. was com missioned by the Australiau Customs Service and is the first in a set of two volumes. relating the history of the Customs Service from the first European sett lement to the , 990<.
Smugglers and Sailors cove~ the period up to Federat ion.
The second volume relates the history from 1901 to the present day. and will be published in latc 1993.
Smugglers and Sailors begins its tale amidst the social turbulence of a developing nation. whose roots are buried in lawlessness aud poverty.
Alcohol provided one of life's few pleasures. and regulation soon became a social necessity.
This early colonial society with its populat ion of convicts and soldiers, and dependent upon supplies from Britain . offered seemingly endless profits from smuggling, and marketplace corruption.
Thc taxation of undesirable substa!lces also offered go\'ernmen! its firsT source of independent income.
Smugglers and Sailors tells the engaging SlOry. not only of the Australian Customs Servicc, but of Australiau society,

Engineers and scientists are currently working on the system known as AuSAR fo r defence mapping and survey requirements but say the potential spin offs for civilian users a re extensive.
DSTO Microwave Radar Division researchers in Salisbury. South Aust ralia , working on the system, say a technology demonstrator will sta rt field lrials by the end of the yea r, signalling a major step forward for the projecl.
Acoording DSTO's Brian
,. Reid ",' ",' best way to understand how
AuSAR generates an image is to imagine an aircraft flying at night with a narrow beam spotlight

point ing d irectly o ut to the side.
~Although you would only be able 10 see a narrow strip of the ground at any one lime , as the aircraft flew along a straight line we could rea}rd eaeh of these strips o nto a re(:Order and generate an entire image, line by line ," said M r Reid.
~The AuSAR works the same way except that it generates a IIarrow beam of microwa\'e energy as it flies along.
~In fact, this beam , genera ted by using powerful signal processing techniques, is only three metres wide at a distance of 50 kilometres.
~With such a narrow beam we can generate high resolution images with resolutions of about) metres.
~Once operational AuSAR , which wiU be mounted in a DC) for field trials , will give the Australian Defence Force a tool in which it can evaluate the use of the synthet ic ape rture radar for a range of ap-

plications including complicated mapping and iU""'ey work .K he said.
Civilian industry groups will also find AuSAR useful.
If soil is very dry a fUlure version of AuSAR will be able to penetrate below the ground for anything up to one half metre.
If the soil is moist the deepness of the imaging is lessened. This feature of synthetic apenure radllr means that archaeologists might one day use it to identify potentia l digs.
~For example ct'ntury old riverbeds, hidden below the surface might be detected, providing pointers to possible digs, K
explained Mr Reid.

Acoommodation for the exercise was at the Bachelor Combined Ranks Quaners (BCQ) at Apra Heights, just ouuide Naval Station Guam.

This was new to Team One and provided a valu· able insight in how to deal with multi explosive o rdnanc.e items spread all over an operational runway; the clearance of which is required as soon as possible .
It also gave us a good heads.up for the practical exercise to follow on T inian Island.
Other lectures followed. Topics (:Overed USN ships' hull search techniques and Limpet mine drill. followed by a practical in·water dis· play by Team One of RAN Limpe t mine disposal eqUipment .
Next were the preparation and conduct of separate USNIRAN exercises in ships' hull searches and render-safe procedures for Limpet mines en(:Ountered.

The 1992 ski season has officially opened and RAN Ski Club members, along with thousands of other enthusiasts, have wued their skis and are ready for II season's (un in the snow. _
The summer refurbishment of club lodges at Mt Buller (Victoria) and PerishCf Valley (NSW) a rc complete al though there was some concern whcn snow fe ll before a large window was replaced a t Pe rishcr VaHey.
Lodge manager Doug Collins was not sure whether he should be thankful or frustntted.
The club has almost a thousand members and three major assets.
Bulle r has 62 beds and Perishcr 19 and a development site in the Hean of lindabyne is capable of adding another 30 beds in,the future.
The total value of these assets is well over a million dol lars.
At this lime o f year lOIS of new membership applications are received, says club captain and recruiting officer David Michael.
New members , whether they ski, o r just enjoy the atmosphere are always welcome_
If you are planning some winter leave boxlkings are never a problem except for school holidays which can be competitive and , naturally , many prefer to avoid this period.
A pplica tion is easy. JUSt give David Michael a ring (02) 266 2057 and the application will be in the mail ; or talk to a member.
Current fees are: membership $210 and subscription $75.
Get a friend to join as well because skiing is always more fun in a group.
Oub members a re welcome to bring fa mi ly and friends to the snow to use and enjoy the facilities.
The lodges are spacious and well appointed with large living and recreation areas and self-catering ki tchens.
'There are a variety of cabin sizes - two, three and four beds at Mt Buller while Perisher Valley features bunk-style,
is the fact that few others can cheaper -in membership or aceom-modation. At $20 a night who could argue.
CHARLOlTE, skip-pered by Ian Rushton from Somers, and assistcd by Glen Pope from Mornington , campaigned the Swarbrick Sill 36 fOOl yacht in a closely contested performancc handicap divi-sion which included the 480nm Melbourne to Hobart race and the final l40nm Oueell5lciffe to Port Fairy race over Easter.
Final results were CHARLOlTE OF CERBERUS (I. Rushton) 377 points; SECOND LADY (B. Jefferson) 373; YOKO (R. Hewitt) 366.
The series was a tough contest for C HARLO I I E in more ways than one.
Despite the obvious competition from other yachts, getting regular crews proved difficult al times due to personnel movements, posting and the fact that the raees were usually run over long weekends!
Because of this a wide range of personnel have been given an opportunity to go ocean racing, from seamen and offi cers under training, personnel from HMAS WARNAMBOOL and of course CERBERUS' ship 's company.
A few regulars include LSMTH Glenn Pope. POPT John Stratton and LCDR Richard Rowan.
Meanwhile, the 1992 Navy Invi tation Team Racing Championship showed that Navy gains prestige from both organising and competing in sport .

the game was fiercely contested the sailors, the majority of whom were drawn from HMAS HARMAN.
Final scores: Anny 3.5 9.916.11 20.15 (135) d Navy 3,4 7.6 8.9 10.10(70).
Navy met a fonnidable Airforce in the second the series on May 20 and perfonned admirably by a point at the first break.
The next three quarters saw Airforce in full flight in a welcome return to form following savage beatings in past years .
A irforce's dominance in the air and at the go..11-front tore the heart from the luckless sailors who eventually succumbed by 80 points.
Final scores: Airforce 5.2 11.6 18.10 21.15 (141) d Navy 5:3 7.4 8 .5 9.7 (6 1).

Kelly, Tony Martin, Rachael Randell and Marty Reed was competitive.
Sea duties caused it to bypass the NSW selection series and this lack of practice proved significant.
For the fi rst day of the final championship the 12 invited teams were in two divisions.
Navy finished third in its group behind the leading Victorian team , Black Rock SC (BRYC).
In the next phase of racing Navy raced against Middle Harbour YC.
Although Navy won the match on the water , protest comminee action led to a loss.
Navy then went on to meet the YMCA SC team from the ACf.
A fortunat e windshift just after the sta rt helped the visitors to early placings of I , 2, 3 and despite a Navy comeback, it won and went on to win the championshi p plate.
In the championship final , the 46th race of the weekend, the Victorian BRSC was matched against SA's G lenelg SC.
Tension was high and the Glenelg team handled it best to emerge winners.
AI the prize-giving function at the RAN Sailing Association's Rushcutters Bay site appreciation was heaped on the Navy by the competitors.
The Command Sailing Centre staff, Jed by CPO Morry Graham, was praised for the boat and venue preparation. CMDR David Cunningham and his team for their work as n ee officers, WOC K Bill Rose and his family for organising the ca tering and CMDR Martin Linsley for overall coordina tion.
The event was a success and is forecast to be even more so in 1993.

FITA is shot only on level ground. usually a playing field .
