Its not good in Sydney, that’s why.

Work harder than any other base for the same pay. A pilot doing 50 hours a month in say Perth will earn the same as a Sydney captain doing 90 hours per month.
You’d be stupid to bid for a Sydney command when you can bid for another base, get the command and be in Sydney 3 weeks of the month anyway and not be forced to work your a** off.
