I wonder if you could spend a minute or to advise me on Flying in South Africa, any tips or advice, however limited will be most appreciated!

I'm an Instructor in the UK, with all the ratings and Frozen ATPL CPL/IR, MCC, TT 800 etc (Current on Seneca II)
and want to move on to Charter work, flying anything that's got two engines, literally the King Air would be excellent but I'd settle for anything.

I know a friend who did very well out in SA, and i'm told that there is plenty work out there. I'm single and prepared to give it a whirl but need advice as to the best way to make it happen.

Is the King Air a good rating to get in/for SA employment ?, how much will it cost ? and who's recruiting ?

Should I consider going out on holiday to look around ? or do you think I should try and get contacts to speak to through you good ppruners ?

Best of luck to you all, and hope to get some tips real soon.....
