Hi I`d like to some advices plz

I am student pilot who will graduate this year...and it seems very diff to

find non instructing job after finishing school I'd thought of taking

instructor course from my own school or go to Oz and try to find job there

the thing is

1. which is better for instructing between Oz vs NZ? In terms of flying hours ,conditions and payment? which is faster to get into region airlines.

2. is it better to do FIC in NZ or Oz? in NZ it requires 100 hrs of supervision when C cat. how much hrs u need for Oz...

3. i'd prefer to do stay in NZ but those c cat guys in my school took like 6 months to get out of 100 hrs supervision and they didn't get pay for it for certain hours. I reckon those b cat gets about 300-400 hrs per year and takes about 3 yrs to be MEI . Is that very normal?

ps. any recommendation in Oz flying school for FIC?

hey mate would u mind sharing infos about it? Do you mean GA or instructing jobs?

in NZ there are 2 GA operators which u can get multi hrs.. and

apparently its matter of knowing the employers in person which i don't

so i thought

Oz might give me more chances of getting job..

Do u reckon there's any GA multi job for fresh CPL? did anyone in ur school

got job other than instructing?
