Indeed...Single pilot IFR cargo at night in Africa can be interesting....that is why you should avoid it and do the USAF option.
I believe the USAF has more aircraft needing citizens to fly them than the Irish and Europen military combined.
I hated letters ending with..."We would like to wish you well in your future aviation career." it generally ment the job I wanted had gone to an ex military pilot on a pension with better training and experiance and my career was remaining in the toilet.
