Hi Folks!

Can anyone operating out in Africa tell me anything about Air Kenya?

I'm a UK based pilot with a Shorts rating who would not object to working abroad.

In particular would they look at UK nationals for their pilots?
Any other info greatly appreciated.

Also any other reasonable turboprop operators looking for FO's, preferably based somewhere I wouldn't get shot at too much??

Cheers ;)

Last I heard AirKenya had sold its Sheds. They are not going to be there much longer. Could be wrong of course! I am sorry but I have no idea if they are hiring on the other fleets. (Dash 7, Twin Otter or Caravan)

Last I heard too was the shorts were off the list.
As for jobs..hmm...i guess you have to be a local or get work permits which are a headache..not to talk about conversions etcetc
