You cant go wrong with Latrobe Valley Aero Club!
Fantastic social atmosphere, excellent instructors, people with a genuine love of flying, and no pretentiousness.
And sausages every Saturday!

they own 2 chieftains
Just curious.
When this thread popped up about THAT ad, I thought someone would have already said what I am about to say-
Reading 'their' advert on AFAP I couldn't help but think of why you would actually send in a full application with only those details to go on. Not only that but as a poster on this thread even enquired about the company name only to be told "you will find out when we arrange an interview". WHAT ARROGANCE!
Apparently this sort of thing (no company given in ad) happened all the time a few years ago when pilots were more plentiful, but I must admit I wasn't around in the industry in those dark days 5 odd years ago. There is no way I would apply for a job when I don't even know who I am applying to, where they operate, where they fly to (region if charter)etc...... How do they expect you to do an interview!? Question: "Why do you want to work for XXX charter?" Answer: "If thats who you are then no way do I want to work for XXX charter!"
Surely there is a consumer/industrial relations law that says in a publically displayed job ad the company name must be given, or recruitment company name if done that way.
end rant

They are the exact reasons i sent an email to them to see if I could find out more for others that might be tempted by Hon* and his bull****. I think the other Navajo is RNG. The aircraft are probably owned by Tiwi College. The story seems to go, one Dark Kiwi got caught doing some fishy ops in the PA-31 without the proper AOC and/or private charter.
Should here some of the pilots on the radio!

Don't know much about charter ops other than VTR's on the way up.
An instructor was lined up to go there, given fresh Chief endo to boot to help with charter, and apparently on the way through Isa 4 days later was called for a Darwin ETA and said he'd found another job.
Nice form.....
Obviously doesn't want a job with anyone to do with QF down the track....
