Rennaisance , yes am a kenyan but not back there yet. I have been in and out a couple of times every year and know exactly wat you are talking about. ...give those fat cats of KCAA $$$ and the doors will open so wide open, thats the way it works down there when you slp them with FAA documents. N-way, countless pilots in kenya have initial FAA training and thats why they are now easying on conversion.....with an ATP, all you do is sit for an Air Law exam and thats it.
For Ricardo, you need someone that you know in Kenya to assist you. There are back doors...eh....alot but arm yourself with some $$$ for them to open.
