There's 2 operators in wilson who fly the Dornier. Freedom Air and Air Traffic. Both conduct operations into somalia for 'cargo' and humanitarian work. Good companies but operators wont consider you unless you have a work permit and last i heard, you need 1000 hours before you can score one of those from immigration :-/

Suggest you do a Google. A quick search brings up several operators.

There are 2 countries called Congo.

Avoid the DRC, it is an evil sh!thole where your survival will probably be measured in days rather than weeks.

Congo-Brasaville is a more peacefull place with a stable government, you will need to speak fluent french. I doubt if there are any jobs for foreign bush pilots but you might be lucky.
