Hi SS

The info on the UN not owning its own fleet is correct.... all the aircraft are leased in for the duration of the mission from third party operators, if you looking for who, where and what I need ? generally the guys operating the big stuff require time on type and experience,eg B727, L383, AN12 IL76 however for the smaller passenger transport side of things DH6, BE20, BE02, ATR42 C208 etc, most of the companies operate two crew and the way most guys start is as co pilots getting P2 ratings and progressing from there. Best place to start looking is on the Afirca side PPrune, may well help you there. otherwise try looking for Rossair, Federal Air, Medicine san frontier, Airserve, MAF, etc etc, the list is very very long...... good hunting though
