I think unless I really needed the hours in the log book I would be inclined to make contact with a few clubs and see if an hour builder or pilot with time to Spare would act as safety pilot. You also get someone with local procedure experience and who knows the places that may not be in the average tour guide. ISTR something about needing two chartsfor VFR flying in Aus? If so then how many hours checkout wil you need? I would rather use that money to pay for a safety pilot. Just my two penarth!
