Guys,
keep the insults down. I am a senior long haul Captain who started life in Aus doing my CPL, also plenty of turboprop experience. I go to Australia often and don't worry I am NOT interested in going there to work.
My point is that Australia is a very very expensive place to live now and make sure you spend a lot of time researching exactly what is being offered and where you could afford to live, etc etc.
Try not to get sucked into the "Aus image" and make a reasoned and calm judgement.
Good luck.
p.s. I am British, do not live in the UK and DO have the right to live and work in Aus, so no axe to grind.
