Ozplod,
U looking at part 135 ops or 121 ops? Forget 121 ops! But since your wife's Indonesian, you could move here and get a permanent residency (not those temporary or working residency above your working visa type of things) first... then you can start trying your luck.

And don't fall for the guys mentioned by AIRJAE... If you wanna try, apply direct to the airline, mention your wive's Indonesian... the airline can apply for the exemption, not brokers, because your exemption won't be legally covered in contract. But be prepared for the airline to give you some punitive working bonds if you're not type rated, and also for their claimed "bribes" bribes to the officials even if you are type rated... And there are airlines who give you the same bond conditions as non-t/r guys! Rip off!

Best to look for and try pot luck with 135 ops with odd types, coz the locals are all flocking to the big jets.

Springers,
As of the company in Medan? It's probably Susi Air, she runs flights to Aceh and has Aid Contracts, so they're partially exempt! However, low time won't get you that far unfortunately.

Even for a C172, you need a type rating over here ! LOL
