When I was at CAE in November they were doing a 2 for the price of 1 deal so shop around.
CAE DXB runs hot and cold, the mob I work for has 4 G4s and have had mixed results from the DXB facility.
I'm here in Sydney too so PM me if you need anything else. Is dead set easy to have CASA put the rating on an Aussie licence if its on the FAA ATPL, if however you do a straight rating and try to put the rating on an Aussie licence its like pulling teeth!!! just dont do it.
There are ways of having your Aussie IR renewed when you do it in the sim o/s but it requires pre-planing and a bit of effort.
