Low by Aussie standards, but there have been 3000hr jet Captains in Europe for decades- and they seem to get by!
It's a lot more important to drill down on WHAT those 3000hr were. By the ad they could be 2800 Barron hours and a bare type rating.
Where was the ad?

Wizz give 320 commands to kids with 3,500 TT and their network is much more demanding than anything close to Australia.
Typical inferiority complex, in over complicating a simple thing to justify one’s superiority.

I tend to agree with this sentiment. Having operated throughout five continents, Australia is by far one of the easiest. No significant terrain, Proficient ATC, reliable Nav-Aids, and accurate WX reports. One has to wonder how Aussies’ claim to be such superior aviators.

Oz ATC still don’t clear you to 2000’ instead of 12000’ radar terrain as happened to me not that long ago. Took two queries to fix it.
I’ve only flown to 40 countries and agree with above - Aus is comparatively benign.

On a STAR starting at 18ish. Ends at 2000’. Huge CB half way along. Request 30 deg right that does take us towards rather high terrain (10k+). Get cleared right of route (no heading or distance limit).
I presume old mate forgets we’re on heading and clears us to 2000’. Query one in case we both misheard, “affirm 2000”. “Confirm cleared level due terrain?” Without missing a beat “Descend 12000 report when clear of weather and can track direct to ILS”

Having flown 402s full of cancelled checks and FedEx overload without a functional autopilot and with +- deice in the winter across northern Minnesota/Wisconsin in the middle of the night, I am inclined to agree with you….

Proficient ATC….are you serious? I’m not going to bag the actual controllers but Ujung Control tends to be more reliable than Airservices ATM.

Admittedly, I haven't flown in Asia, South America, the Pacific nor southern Africa, but from memory, Australian ATC is generally significantly better than most other places that I've flown in. Rate of delivery, use of standard phraseology and accuracy are generally better.
Naples on a stormy afternoon or any of the Greek island ATC on a Summer's day = carnage. Anywhere south of Florida to the Caribbean on January 2nd is an absolute nightmare.

Bloody heck.
(Nearly) Every trip I fly in the upper Midwest from September to May is hardball IFR. Most of them are pretty much in the clag from takeoff to landing (with ice, of course) as they are less than 300 NM and it makes no sense to climb to the flight levels in a turbo piston twin. The rest of the year we have thunderstorms to avoid.
People need to learn to fly.
