Earlier this week I was honoured to receive the Aviation/Aerospace Australia Chair’s Award for leadership in the aviation sector. Best of all, Angus joined me on stage, looking dapper in his tuxedo onesie. I love being his mum, I love what I do, and I love that we don’t have to choose.

It’s very important for young aviators to keep their favourite aeroplane close by at all times, especially during tummy time.

Angus is one month old today so of course we started him on general relativity. One month old is the perfect age for starting physics.

Since December, I have handed over command of mighty 10 Squadron (including retiring the Aussie P3), and @syd04.bsky.social and I have moved interstate, prepped a house for sale, done a kitchen reno, HAD A BABY, and started new jobs. Today our Adelaide Hills house settled. Tonight we celebrate.

How do babies sleep so LOUDLY? It’s the dead of night, little mate is sound asleep yet he sounds like a weird mixture of an APU and a horny koala.

Settling a crying baby is like troubleshooting an aircraft malfunction. There’s a number of things that could be wrong. If you know your systems, you can attack them in order of probability. So you do the checklist and keep moving down the list until the alarm stops.

With all the noise about drones changing the character of war, this is a big deal and an awesome piece of Aussie innovation - a battery operated, portable DE system that can burn through steel and engage drones from a click away.
