Hey Guys..
SRT.. you are on the monyey with that comment. I think the way we do it and do some conversions before we ever go "solo" in our small pisscats is probably a lot safer than some other countries.
pyote..thanks for the input...forgot about the actual paperwork side of things which is probably the most important part of getting the job.
Then onto the FAA instructors licence... SA is very sticky on FAA licence just being converted. If you want to get your SA licence unfortunately you have to write on your commercial exams and instructors exams..just like any other Comm pilot out there. Then do your test after that after done some "patter" with an instructor...Long run, gona cost you a whole lot of cash before getting started...then there is still no job for you guarenteed.
Namibia on the other hand is a lot easier. Just a practical flight test on a C152 on C172 and with an easy Airlaw test...which incidently cost you U$1...what a joke to ask for money anyway. Then on your way to get a job. There is only a few flight schools in Namibia and a lot of students with lots of money there. Pay is pretty crap though.
Good luck
