ASA courses
16wk course for the RAAFies and no allowances/assistance with costs that the OS recruits are getting. Which seems a little on the nose given that whether you've come from London or Townsville, you are still out of pocket while living and studying in Melb yet maintaing your family home elsewhere.
Guess ASA are still relying on the "grass is greener" theory to make the RAAFies swallow their pride and permit their experience (one is an ex-Darwin APP supervisor which = international airport civilian traffic experience with the added bonus of understanding military ops for the next Tandem Thrust or Pitch Black) to be ignored.
What ASA offers mostly is location stability. Wonder what the RAAFies who jumped ship to stay in Brissie will think of the plan to move Bris centre to ML in the next 10 years? Better than Tindal I guess... maybe.
