Hi Nick,
TIE Pilots are awesome but I may be prejudiced.........
OK as for gloves I got mine at Wampa Wear (google) a few of the lads here do periodic orders from them and i would recommend you jump on a bulk order to save you some postage costs, there are a couple of vendors in Brisbane also but they are a bit hit and miss with stock and sizes.
Compads - PM Oevil1 here on the forums as he makes them and a mighty fine job he does too.
Hard aromour - Check out Arakyel over the the JRS (www.jrs501st.com) he does great helmets, chest and back plates and chestboxes. Prices are pretty good but with the dollar the way it is then it can get a bit pricey. Arakyel has had a heater issue recently so he does have a bit of a back log of work built up (mine included)
Flightsuit - there are various build threads here on the forum and you can see the one we all used.
TIE Pilots are a great way to start as you can get your Reserve Pilot approved nice and fast while you work on the harder, more expensive items.
We have a number of Pilots in the Garrison who will all be more than willing to help.
As for Galactic Academy - there are no approval requirements for the kids. Just sign them up on the GA website and they will get a welcome email and certificate etc. My kids both troop with me and have a blast. We have a couple of "Rubies" brand Jawa costumes and we are currently making a Mini Vader and a Jedi so it keeps my boys busy and involved
If you need any help with any part of the build please feel free to PM me and remember a TIE Pilot is like a Stormtrooper that hits what he aims at!!!
Cheers,
Adam.
