Question Best way to go about things???

Hi Everyone,

I wonder if those in the know can help me.

I am traveling to Kenya and then to Botswana for 2 weeks next February in the hope of securing a pilot position.

1) Are these good places to start when looking for work in light of my experience(see below) or would you suggest somewhere else in Africa??

2)what is the best way to go about things when there??

3)In your experience is it best to call / fax the respective operators about your arrival or just turn up with CV in hand (I am very keen and confident but I do not want to be rude).

I have around 300 hours and should be at least around the 370 mark by the time I go. I have 100 hours Multi and this should be at least 120 - 150 when I leave for Africa.

I have a UK issued CPL / IR / MCC. I am an ex air traffic controller and I am 27 years old. I speak English, French and basic to intermediate Russian if that is of any help!!!!

Thanks in advance guys and gals.
