Gunner b 1 2,
For some strange reason I was having a look around the Dept of Foreign Affairs and Trade site. That ended up at the Dept of Immigration section. Yep, you are correct, the profession of "Pilot" attracts 60 points, ie the maximum. However, before every one rushes out with their brand new CPL, CASA asseses the application and I dare say realistically you'd need some experience to go with it.
However folks, don't despair. The list is long and rather surprising as to what trades/skills/professions Australia needs.
I believe you need to be under 45, score 60 points on the skills req, pass a medical and have some money in the bank.
For more info, try Dept of Foreign Affairs or Jobs list

Note, unlike in our recent history, a criminal record is not a prerequisite
