Several flights obviously passing thru Melbourne and Sydney so coming home (Australia) can work, but getting to work the routing completes the roundabout thru China, Korea then ANC, etc. Not much of a substantial run which would necessitate a base nor commuting clause to support minor numbers of personnel. They’re just filling holes, it’s how it works here. Find bodies here, find bodies there and move on to another source (Will Canada be next?). The QFA Contract has been steady, but they come and go like HSV, PAE or Houston (might return) which both were around for well beyond a decade. Doesn’t mean deals aren’t being made behind the scenes, just ask other Aussie flyers once on the line - so there’s that.

*We probably have roadshows scheduled in Antarctica as well. Just a hop and skip away.

Lord, I apologize for creating a “Jump to conclusions mat”. In layman’s terms: Those living abroad have found ways to select gateways (within the U.S.) in such a way to benefit themselves (not in a bad way) which provides the ability for a fully ticketed commute OR a substantial amount of the cost to commute and make it work.
*As mentioned before, find those who reside down under and glean this information from them. A few of them seem to be doing very well.

True! Sometimes I skip a day here and there and obviously post at odd hours especially when I’m home so answers don’t always come quick. Swakid8 gets it. He understands as well as many others that people make it work and we can only state the normal transactions that take place and not disclose the nuances that somehow might jeopardize another parties working relationship within our walls. I’m not that guy.
