Research the country before posting meaningless stats. There are two ecomomies in SA, one skews the other in a big way.
I get that, I was simply answering one meaningless stat with another (or two).

Most of all, dont criticise people living there, because they live there!
I don't recall doing that...

You clearly are an exceptional person / pilot, with skills that SA has never seen before
Oh, per-leese! I am simply rated on a type that is currently experiencing a worldwide shortage of captains. If the company could find a SA pilot I am sure they would employ him or her. However, they can't, so they look elsewhere whilst they train up locals. Don't put words in my mouth.

Perhaps I should come over there, and we could all get together and settle this over a pint or ten?
