'Real flying'

Frankly, as anyone in/from the bush will tell you, it's the best way to get a taste of the "real stuff", as was once told to me.

Sure, instructing/scenics out of the bigger cities has its pros also, but I've been led to believe that the flying done out bush is much more valuable due to the nature of it alone. Much more decision making, thinking on your feet, more practicality in the lessons that newbees learn. That aside, you're more likely to be flying a "complex single" in the bush which generally augers well with future employment onto twins.
