I'm looking to experience the world. I kind of gathered that aviation in Australia was rather small in comparison to the insane amount we have here in the U.S., at the Corporate and Regional levels alone. I never heard of an Australian hiring boom, that wasn't a motivation at all.

Not to sound naive, but I would hope to be judged on my skills rather than the stereotype American Cowboy Aviator, if I ever have the opportunity to make a life down in Australia. It is quite the opposite here, we hold you, and the Limeys to a rather high regard when you come over to get ATP add ons, etc.

Thanks for the reply though I may take you up on your offer for the information on conversions, etc.

Also, again on the equivalence of grade 12 Australia, and a US HS Diploma and Jr College Associated Degree, if anyone has any information. Thanks, I haven't had time to check your .EDU sites yet, I will tomorrow though.
