Also remember AA that if you were based in New Zealand or Oz you would have to start paying that thing called income tax again. You'd have to pay twice as much (at least) for that luxury German car, you pilots like to drive, not to mention paying GST, Super Surcharge, Stamp Duty, Capital Gains tax etc etc. Be interested to know how many guys would jump at the chance to embrace all those nasties again. As I said each to their own.
