East Coast, was not really a 1st job sort of spot. But having said that i hardly know all the operators there. I'm sure there would be some outstanding ones - the hard bit is finding them.

Sudholz was the best i knew of in Qld. However, again maybe not a fresh CPL job unless you really sold yourself or had other skills such as instructing. Much the case with GAS as well.

206greaser my info might be outdated and they might actually be very good. I'm just saying that back in the day certain companies treated pilots particulalrly well when they could easily have done what everyone else was doing.

In those days just to get the record straight the majority of the operators treated newbies like a pest and not only hardys.

From a different point of view another good job was Stanbroke. Nicknamed "staybroke" it wasn't the best conditions or lifestyle if you know what i mean, but by gee you'd learn how to fly and get plenty of hours and life lessons.

Second or third job top jobs

Skytrans
Karratha Flying Services
