well so far after looking for Tanzanian experienced pilots we have received CV's from India, Sweden, UK, South Africa etc.... not one Tanzanian !
So where are all these experienced Tanzanians that everyone talks of... and the salaries certainly are market related - Oil and Gas salaries are a lot higher than your average tourist pilot. ( in fact higher than some big airlines )
I am convinced that the experience, or pilots, are just not there - so the reality is that there is a SHORTAGE of Tanzanian pilots who are actually acceptable by client, or insurance standards - makes you wonder
