Fab;
Send me your CV, my email in your PM, not promising anything but at least ill have it incase i come across something for you.
My suggestion is for you to go to Maun, Botswana next year February(as its too late now) with a C206/C208 rating and see the guys there, they only employ pilots that are there pre season(tourism season), its competitive but if your rated you got a good chance. They fly alot in that time and you should rack up approx 1000hrs + in two seasons, go visit the Campfire and Africa forums for more info.
A C208 rating will cost you $2000-3000 in South Africa, you just need a validation which is straight forward. I know Solenta(DHL) employ foreign pilots on SA validation for contract work in West Africa on 208's or $15 0000 will get you a ATR42 rating and a job with them. Also try Precision Air in Tanzania, i know they looking for guys for their ATR's but have to fund own rating. Its sad but that's the trend the industry is following, at least you wont be bonded!
Good luck bud
