Ghana Aviation

Hi,

first post on here so if im posting in the wrong place then apologies for that.
Just been relocated to work out of Ghana month and month rotation, can you advise on the Aviation there supporting offshore, im told its a Beechcraft 1900 with Solenta and then onto the NHV operation for offshore. I ask because i have worked elsewhere in Africa in the past and encountered some very poor operations, any info on whats ahead good or bad would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Yes it is Solenta on a B1900D then NHV on the swing-wing.
I have sent you a pm.

But to allay your fears, Solenta and NHV are approved by Tullow Aviation Safety Audit teams.
Solenta Aviation is also approved by ( list not exhaustive ) Litson and Associates, BP, SHELL, ENI, TOTAL and have a fully GREEN status with the Flight Safety Foundation BARS audit process.

Check your pm, and feel free to check out our website, mail or even call me.

Dry wretched thunder,

Can you give any details as to salary one can expect flying the beech 1900 in Ghana? Also, do you have a ghana cpl? or is it not required to work for the oil companies. Planning on moving to Ghana soon and have FAA CPL ME IR.
