i am not sure what others think, but i came here from nz. with a cpl over a year ago and worked for a few operators on the ground loading super and mixing chemicals. did in the meantime my ag rating and now just have a seat. i enjoy the ground work. and it will tell you wether this is for you. working in the heat the dust. and some flies and when you come home at night fixing gear that brakes during the day. rather than sitting at 30.000 in a suit with a coffee. and fill in a bit off paper when something brakes. i love the atmosphere. i think it helps iff you come from a rural background.
i got over here got on the phone and ring around with numbers out off the yellow book from the aaaa. but thanit is a bit easier for me to hop across than it is for you to come from the uk. i am sure the experienced blokes will give you a few better guide lines. good luck
