Hi,
I am a current student pilot with a private pilot license studying aviation and working towards my commercial license at a part 141 flight academy in Florida. Recently I have gathered an interest in flying in Australia. I am wondering if I get all of my training in Florida, how hard would it be to convert my license over to an Aussie license and what measures would I have to take in order to do so. Would I have to invest all this time and money that I am here in the states just to do it all over again in Australia? Also, what kinds of airlines in Australia are hiring pilots? I am sure that you would have to start of on the bottom and work your way up, much like here in the states. Any info on how to go about this please let me know.

Thank you.
Alex
