Quote: “I'd like some info on what it takes to convert an FAA license to an African equivalent.” Which African equivalent?
Quote: “Just wanting to know how the Aus ATPL goes transfering to an equivilant African standard and what sort of regional flying those sort of qualifications will get you...” Which equivalent African standard?
There are over 40 separate countries in the continent Africa. Naturally they each have their own Civil Aviation Agency (or similar title) and each has its own peculiar requirements. The same applies to their work permit policies. Suitcaseman gave you a clue in his post above when he referred to some of those countries. If after reading that you still do not comprehend that Africa is not one country then you should give it a miss. You will not fit in!
If you are serious about flying in some part of Africa then you need to do some homework. Narrow down your choice of countries and then find out about their requirements and employment opportunities.
