CSG from what I have heard are a good company to work for, SR, their senior pilot has good experience and would also be an excellent person to work under. They pay above award however being a Private operation, pilots may be exposed to long days, but if you weren't a city boy pansy like a lot of bar wearing wanks around these days you prob wouldnt have problem.

Started off with a Lance and a Chieftain, then about 4 years ago bought a B200, traded it in for a Hawker Premier, N34GN I think then bought a Citation VII, VH-LYM. I think they still have the Hawker to cover the work when the CJ is in for Maint. All of their work is in house and the VII does a truck load of work, mostly DN-SY DN-ML, but can be seen anywhere.

Their PA31 went in the drink after takeoff not so long ago due eng fail, which they never replaced but now have a Vulcan Air Partenavia with a semi glass setup reg VH-VMV. And I think the Lance still does a lot of work out of Alice Springs.

About 2 or 3 years ago they couldn't get anyone to fly the Lance, you would see the job come up out of Alice every 6 months. Aside from being in Alice for longer than six months would have been a great job, lots of hours, good equip, good variety in locations etc.

I am sure they don't need any drivers as most of the time they are sourced from the friends bucket, but never know your luck if you make yourself known to them, like anywhere of course.

Have fun. Gaf.
