Agree with Flux, its good experience on the C208 with someone that has been around and you can just about do with a Van in the bush than you can with a 206..if you go the 206 route you might be held on the 206 if the company is short of skippers on the 206 and then you battle to get on the 208..and Federal operate 208`s in SA so you can come back here and fly in SA but no one operates 206`s in SA..Good luck..
