Karrank/Topdrop - thanks for the quick replies to the post.
Think you've confirmed my suspicions/fears. So, looks like it'll be odd-jobs at the local airfield/Hungry Jack's near the airfield (admin, cleaning the toilets etc.... ) until I've done my two years working in South Australia and can get the forms off to Airservices. Another 3yrs and I'll be on my way to becoming a true blue Aussie. Can't wait.
Apart from getting as much info as possible, harrassing the local ATC unit/working for them on the admin side - is there anything worth considering doing to boost your chances of selection with ASA - ie. courses/work experience/PPL etc?
On the plus side, the Wife will be happier with the prospect of the "big" city and the bright lights of rundle street/Glenelg over the charms of Mt.Gambier - even if there is less surf!
Thanks guys!
WF
