Thats the result of affirmative action. Now 50% of pilots must be aboriginees :-)

It's QANTAS.
I'm no expert but the new pilot looks like he's from PNG.
Love the new uniform, if it worked for The Red Hot Chili Peppers, I say go for it.

Yep, he's definitely from PNG, not Oz. I've got one of those penis gourds hanging in the basement. Having flown up there, he may have better skills than some of the pilots who make it there. Remember the A320 Airbus pilot who decided he knew better than the computer when low-flying at the airshow in (Toulouse?) - killed three when he put it down in a pine forest. Guess where he went to continue his flying career?

By the way its spelt QANTAS - or, if you prefer, Quaintarse

He keeps an eye out for dangers.

I would say that the photo was taken in Papua (the latest name for Iran Jaya). The man in the background appears to be Indonesian.
