Broome Aviation Services? Info?

Looking for current and first-hand info from people who've worked / are working for the above. I do intend to head up there myself to scrape up a low-hour hire, but need to know what to expect.

1. What are line pilots making casually and how many hours on average?
2. Where are you all staying? Any company quarters or all self-accommodated? Going rates of basic places?
3. Any other tips for a new jockey.

If anyone also wants to throw in info on the above on other operators I'm targeting around Aus being Kimberly Aviation, Chartair, Hinterland that'd be great!

Cheers

That is the one that’s been ‘wound’ up. There’s only one operator on that list Ild consider, and they’re Darwin based.

Broome Air Services has been sold to Aviar.
Broome Aviation is still in operation. Mainly paid casually to my knowledge. ( I do not work there)

Company supplied accommodation is rare for low hour pilots. At any operators that I know of. There may be assistance for the HLC based person for the company you are mentioning.
