Cool Egypt air

My advise to you,dont waste ur time in Egypt. They make life so difficult in the CAA over there in Cairo. When u arrive with a licence from the UK,FAA or CAA they make it seem like u just landed from space.
Its so complicated, and u have to go upstairs and kiss some....sss of those ex Airforce guys to get every document signed.
The Medical is also very complicated, theres a famous lady over there, shes a pshycologist. She will definately fail u the first time. She told a frnd of mine who did his licence is South Africa "choose another Career". He left Egypt finally never to return. She told him hes got Brain cancer. Hes flying today,and perfectly normal guy,in another airline outside Egypt
They just dont like pilots that are young, and got the licences from other countries. The make u feel like u never went to flight school.
You need to have lots of patience,if you wanna go through this process. Gud luck,and i hope this guides u in the right direction..

Happy Landings
