Might only be for direct entry captains though and that the basing options would be limited by this.
Still could be better than an LCC job in SA (or mine!) for those with the green mamba.
Apparently they're going down to SA in the next few weeks to screen the SAA pilots that are interested.
If anyone down there (non-SAA) wants to see them as well it might be worth emailing them?

for those rated captains requiring visas it would be Dublin, which is a great place to bring up a family from my own experience or Stansted, lots of Brazillians hired through these channels.
