Survey - How far globally do Oz pilots work
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, :O 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!
