A couple of points re above:

Zepthiir
First hard part would be convincing the RFDS that they should sponsor you considering they have a flood of pilots knocking on their door.
A last report, there is not a flood, and those who do apply are often without the required expereince. They are having a lot of trouble now finding guys with the combination of bush time and 200 night hours in remote areas.

The last point they are extremely strict on - and rightly so as it's probably the most high risk GA operation in oz.



Blue Eagle Wasn't a pilot ON the professional immigration list about a year ago? I seem to remember it being discussed in here.

In any case, if it's on the list or not, then it's still possible if your employer makes a case that the skills are not available here - which is entirley probable with the situation described above.
