Yeesh! Man you guys are mean to me...
IHL: I think your opportunities are very good downunder. There is an S76 operation in the northern part of the North Island of NZ called Northland Emergency Services Trust (NEST) They are busy getting another 76 online and may need crews. In OZ try Helicopters Australia in Perth for work in Bass Strait and potentially Llyods... oops!, CHC for other stuff.
The big issue is whether anyone will take you seriously until you convert your licence. Then it is up to the company to prove they need you to the Aussie Government....Goodluck.
So, why do so many of us come to the Northern Hemisphere to work?
Well, as an example with no factual numbers.
USA - 200 million+ people, 5000 licences(?) 5000 helicopters.
CA - 20 Million people, 4000 licences, 3000 helicopters
OZ - 20 Million people, 4000 licences, 1500 helicopters
NZ - 3 Million people, 3000 licences, 500 helicopters.
...its just a matter of mathematics.
