You’d be lucky to get a job in Darwin with those hours even when GA was pumping
You can be lucky. Back when it was pumping lad in his teens flew in on the 2330 commercial with $90 in his pocket, bare CPL, and had a job at 0830 the next morning, having walked the rounds with suit case in tow, on a 210 at an Aboriginal community. The exception maybe.
Then again there were two QF cadets who turned down the GA positions offered to them in Darwin as they wanted to remain in Sydney, not out in the sticks in hick town Darwin. Always wondered if QF retained them.
