Bush Flying Jobs

Hi guys,

What's the current stance on bush flying jobs in South Africa/Africa/Australia etc? I'll hold a JAR ME CPL/IR (with ATPL theories) but only have around 250 hours, about 80 dual ME, and 5 of those ME "P1" (PIC/US).

I'm highly interested in getting some real hands on flying to build my hours towards airline employment, and I think I'd enjoy a few months in one of those countries, even though I've heard about the bad maintenance and risks that are out there.

Also, are there any particular countries I want to steer well clear of (such as those where there's a lot of rebel conflict etc).

Regards,

Ben
