Based: Bunbury, Dwellingup, Manjimup // forwarding base Albany
Pay: Award plus 15% (although has recently gone up due to EBA)
All in all this job is good for getting time and experience up. You will see some amazing things and maybe even a branch or two if you fly into the smoke (nb/ strong updraughts). Expect 300 hours for the season plus.
Cost of living is minimal compared to up north. Great bunch of people to work with. Conditions and treatment is second to none. Fleet is stunning and all close to new (less than 10 years old).
Problems associated with this job are progression past 800 hours is that you may become more bush pilot than anything else. Judging from word around the campfire a lot of them are going back and only 3 spots are open. I would expect it to be quite competitive in the given market requiring 400TT+
NB. Manji has three footy clubs and one pub, be careful who you try to drag in town as the residents know all to well the passing nature of young blooded male pilots.
