Hi I am an ex military pilot with almost 2000 hrs. Never held a commercial license. I'm moving to Australia next year and wondering what would be the most efficient way to go for CPL H from CASA. Should I get a license from my home country 1st (which is quiet a process in itself) and then go for conversion Or is there any way to apply with my military experience (log books, certificates and my skills are all I got to show for it). I got an year to put things in order. Just want to be sure about procedure.

I got this to replace my helmet that took a bird/windshield to the face. It was backordered and got mine repaired faster so now I have this. It has never been flown, just took it out of the shipping box to check it out. All options this is $3,883.00 with the Lightspeed installed and NVG visor. Single plug U-174. See pictures attached and let me know if you have any questions. Asking $3200.
