Professor, The 210 was their figure not mine and the extra bit might come as a result of the question "Do you have any check and training experience". You clearly must be on the recruiting team if you can say "There are not a huge number of positions available but they will easily fill them." The figure of 120-150 pilots does sound like a fairly large number to me.
74world. I have been in your position before and beleive me when I say that repatriating to Australia aint what it is all cracked up to be. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. It should not be done at all costs. Look very hard at the financial aspects of it. Australia is up there with Europe now in terms of cost of living. Sometimes having a choice muddies our thinking. Good luck whichever way you go.
