Default SE Queensland Pilot Positions

Hi Everyone,

I have recently completed by CPL and MECIR and as I am sure all the pilots on here know finding that first job is extremely hard.

I am hoping that there is someone here who might know of any current pilot jobs in SE Queensland ? I have been looking around as much as possible but so far have not been able to find anything.

Help would be very much appreciated.

You might be able to get a job with Pelair as a Metro F/O.

You are going to really struggle to find a job in SE Queensland as a fresh CPL. I would recommend heading up north and building your experience until something comes up in SE Queensland.

In the meantime, keep checking the afap website for listings.

Try the sky diving mobs - Ramblers and Byron Bay Sky Divers - I know both have taken on people with not much more then CPL hours. - especially Byron.

Apart from that unless you have an instructors rating there isn't much else between OOL & MCY.

If you have an instructors rating PM me and I'll give you some more info.

Any reason why you are limiting your choices to SE Qld?
There are plenty out there elsewhere too, especially up in FNQ at the moment (but maybe a bare CPL and MECIR is a little light on).... Considered overseas for a year or so?
