Because, it’s not home and it’s only natural to want to live where things simply “make sense”. I’ve been here over 20 years, apart from a stint back at VOz and while the options in the US for pilots are, for obvious reasons better, you’ll always be a foreigner. For some that’s easier to handle, than it is for others. As an Aussie though, you should find you’ll cop a lot less grief form the majority of Americans than you would coming from most other countries. Australians and Americans share a lot more in common than the sh!t we give each other, would suggest.
Be respectful, don’t be the whiny, pedantic, anally retentive Aussie and appreciate the US for its good qualities and you can have an amazing life here.
