Thankyou CC and GN for the replies and also those for the PM's. Very much appreciated and good to see all constructive comments thus far!
Thanks also airdualbleedfault for the advice, I have considered Network and it is not off the table completely, probably the only couple of things swaying my thoughts would be they only have a Perth base, so no chance of getting to the east coast, and having had a look at the F100 and B717 on the inside I do have to say the 71 looks like a nicer bit of kit (personal preference i guess).
Although there is the argument that flying a jet is flying a jet, doesn't really matter what it looks like, and I do hear a rumour that network could be getting some nicer equipment... I wonder if there is anyone in the know that would like to confirm it?...
