Sunfish,
Which goes a long way to explain why it has been estimated that Australia will slip from economy No.6 in our region, to No.13 by 2030.
Our ratbag energy "policy", helping to de-industrialize Australia, alone will be a big contributor.
A big pilot training operation has recently been established there, another one in Cambodia, perhaps we can fill the Australian pilot shortfall from the CASA destruction of local training, from those sources.
Tootle pip!!
PS: It is New Zealanders who are very active in setting up schools in the area, with local aviation authorities increasingly adopting the NZ "rules" as a basis for their own ICAO compliant rules.
