A huge concentration of these droplets over a large area in the atmosphere becomes visible as cloud, while condensation near ground level is referred to as fog.

This allows more room for dirty clothes in a load while still lowering the water requirement. This varies based on humidity, personal preference and activity, but it generally falls in the low 70s. One hundred percent humidity outside the house means it might rain, and while a swamp cooler won’t cause a downpour in your home, it won’t have any cooling effect either – just the hot, sticky feeling you might associate with swamps.

Australia’s combat aircraft were not used again in combat until the Iraq War in 2003, when 14 F/A-18s from No. 75 Squadron RAAF operated in the escort and ground attack roles, flying a total of 350 sorties and dropping 122 laser-guided bombs. Rines detailed how the number of Nessie sightings had dropped dramatically. They dropped 76,389 bombs and were credited with 786 enemy personnel confirmed killed and a further 3,390 estimated killed, 8,637 structures, 15,568 bunkers, 1,267 sampans and 74 bridges destroyed.

In 1953, a Royal Air Force officer, Air Marshal Sir Donald Hardman, was brought out to Australia to become Chief of the Air Staff. Equipped with ears and nostrils that can shut tightly to block out sand, camels are cud-chewers, dining on the sometimes scarce plant selection in lowland steppes, grasslands and desert climates. Entry to the Graduate Pilot Scheme is open to women who are currently undertaking a Bachelor of Aviation (BAv). In 2016, the remaining restrictions on women in frontline combat roles were removed, and the first two female RAAF fast jet fighter pilots graduated in December 2017. Air Force has implemented several programs to assist women who choose a pilot career. Once qualified, women pilots are able to access the Flying Females Mentoring Network. Men and women are required to undergo the same basic fitness tests to become a pilot; however the standards are lower for females. You don’t have to be tested on your ability to sprint as a firefighter, but there are many other physical requirements including raising ladders, forcing your way into a locked building, carrying and dragging hoses and more. The UH-1 helicopters were used in many roles including medical evacuation and close air support.
