Saudi Aviation Flight Academy (SAFA) - any experience/advise
They have a new website up and running which looks promising, although quite a few facilities are shown as computer graphics. But it sounds they are operational and hiring again.

Has anyone got (work) experience with SAFA? And who has lived in Saudi as an expat? What are the career opportunities in this country, or in Middle East in general? Any advise welcome!

Cheers!
