For all you internationals out there who are thinking of applying, you will all be welcomed with open arms...don't worry too much about tossers like the one who started this thread. Got a bunch of internationals in my group, and all are a pleasure to work with, and great to have a beer with.
No Aussies are having any jobs taken off them, both academies are full to overflowing with young Aussie trainees, all of whom will benefit from the experience you guys will bring with you.
If we look at it the other way, how many Aussie ATC's in Germany right now? (At least a cricket team, some of whom are very close friends). How about the sandpit? Another cricket team right there.
PMS I dunno what your grudge is, my guess is either you, or one of your mates, was told 'no thanks' to be rehired by ASA ('FO overseas' I think was your quote). If that's the case, I'm sorry, but maybe there is a reason behind that?
