And another funny thing, Bloggsie, I personally know several Jet* Captains who are leaving Jet* (at short, short notice) to take up jobs overseas.
Jobs that pay 2 and 3 times the salary they're on now.

"Hearing" of Dragon Air pilots "applying" to join Jet*, and having them actually leave a job that gives them shiploads more $$$$$'s, shiploads more leave, and shiploads more lifestyle are worlds apart.
The management rumour mills have got you guys jumping at your OWN shadows.

Australia might be a great country -IF you've got the income to enjoy it, after the tax man has halved your wage.
Even 737 drivers in India are picking up USD10.5K per month, and getting the time off to enjoy it.
Dragon Air pays more than that (taking allowances and bonuses into account).
WTF would they want to come here for a miserable $6k after tax?!
