What is it with the pilots coming through flying schools in the last few years? All they wanna know is how to get to Qantas in the quickest fashion.

My suggestion rodrigues, go out and earn yourself a couple of thousand hours first, doing GA charter. Don't do instructing, at least not for the first 1-2,000hrs anyway. You're only doing your students a dis-service by not actually having any experience to pass onto them.

You'll thoroughly enjoy GA (provided you're not a whinging little mummy's boy who only wants the best), and the experience you'll walk away from GA with is priceless. Unless you're in your mid 30's, then I don't see what the rush is to get to Qantas or Virgin.
