I lived in an area of the U.S. which is quite desolate near the Canadian border where there was not much work besides logging timber and lobstering, so I can relate to what you guys are saying about the sparseness, not everything in America is stripmalls and McDonalds as the media stereotypically depicts. What I would like to know, would working in the bush still be manditory to rack up hours even if I have a mulit engine opperators licence with a Flight Instructor/Instrument Flight Instructor rating and about 500 hours?? I would be coming over with some backing behind me. Also if I decide to do this how would one find work, even in the bush? Is there a publication or forum where I could research oppertunities or is it more like pack my bags and embark on a pilgrimage into the wild blue yonder?? I am completely ignorant to the world of aviation in Australia however, am very interested in it... Any info helps out!! Thanks for all that has been shared thus far.
