CHC

Seems like CHC is a solid operator, their Malabo operation has new SK76C+ with all the bells and whistles on the ESSO contract, however there Bata operation has A++'s and the GPS's are not IFR approved. With all the traffic going into Malabo I wonder how they start their approach legally with a VFR only GPS (Potob at 8000'). They don't have TCAS either.

They also have SA registered aircraft, but the guys rotating through Bata haven't written the SA airlaw exam. I believe a couple of years ago everybody had to write the SA airlaw exams, a CAA inspector was sent to Malabo for all to write their exam. So what is the deal here?
