Yeah, would love to go and work for Turnbull and his boss, Trump. Not!!
Sound advice given. Don't fear GA if a Cadetship is not on offer. It's a great place to develop all the skills mentioned above and it's a lot of fun. Flying a jet is not as demanding as the flying you will do in GA....I assure you of that.

Yeah, it would suck flying a KC-30/C130J/F18/C17/C-27J/Wedgetail/Seahawk/NH90/etc...
Training in a PC9/PC21 whilst getting paid...
Doing some disaster relief/providing humanitarian aid/search and rescue/survivor assistance...
All sounds pretty boring to me...
Give me a clapped out, 32 year old Chieftain on less than minimum wage! That's where it's at!
Look, just trying to provide some balance - for sure, the ADF is not for everyone and everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but I doubt there are many in the ADF who would feel or agree that they "work for Turnbull". Except maybe the VIP Squadron - I mean, I guess they "work for" him...![Nerd](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/nerd.gif)
And, there's nothing wrong with the Chieftain job if that's what you want to do - each to their own - all part of life's rich tapestry...
Further, I acknowledge the OP has already expressed a desire to pursue an airline path and is not interested in pursuing an ADF option,which is all good!

It has been (gratefully) pointed out to me via PM that a 32 year old Chieftain would be one of the newer ones getting around...
