Survey - How far globally do Oz pilots work

Just reading the pages of D & G, and it occured to me that there are a lot of Oz Pilots living and working overseas.

I thought it would be an interesting exercise to see where Oz pilots have infiltrated the global aviation industry.

no need to give a long winded resume, just a short few lines preferably as follows:

Captain ABC

1) Land of Oz - Croc Dundee Charters, Single Engine Charter,
2) ENZED - Long white cloud Airlines, commuter turbo props,
3) Pommy land - Airline of Virgins, Wide Body Kero Burners.

Hopefully we can come up with some weird and wacky corners of the world that Oz pilots have infiltrated into, but dont be afraid to post if not so weird - just not on home soil.

Thanks

Working in Southwest Alaska, around the tundra and Bering Sea, I thought I was the only Aussie mad enough to be there until I heard a bloke on the radio flying a helicopter out of Bristol Bay. He said he was from queensland, I didnt hold it against him. I am surprised a Queenslander could handle the cold!

Based in Bethel, Alaska. Cessna 207s, and Piper Chieftains.
