Breaking Contract

I have been offered a long contract in a place a very long way away from home. It will be my very first jet job, which I'm very pleased about. The company will pay for all training, accomodation, etc. I have received the contract and it says that if I break the contract and leave within the contract I am not able to join an airline that flies aircraft that the airline has already paid for me to be trained on. It does sound like a very good job and an excellent opportunity, it's just that I'm not sure if I can commit myself to being away for that long. Does the airline really have a right to say who I can and can't work for if I do quit within the contract? Is that legal, or what? It just doesn't sound right to me.
