Swakop was the best! I still think the stories from there beat contract stories most times.
It is the greatest place to start a career-and I only left because like most people went chasing bigger things. There are moments of madness that you look back on ask questions, like trying to find a shipwreck at a hundred foot cloudbase-just to work your tip. Generally it was life, but you had to watch your nest egg, as winter was busy with much cash-while summer was little flying with many Tafels on the deck of the Lighthouse.
The Politics i think is a recent thing with all the new companys (i think there seven now? or something in Swakop) as when I was there it was just Pleasure Flights and Atlantic.
Would recommend it to anyone to try get work there-but it will never be a career-remember that.
