re: CPLH Conversion in Africa

Hi Heliamo,

I only have experience with fixed wing conversions but that should be the same deal. Kenya: forget it if you don't have a work permit you wont get the license. Try and knock om some doors at Wilson airport in Nairobi Some company's provide you with a work permit. Tanzania write a type rating test and air law at the CAA in Dar es Salaam, then you need 5 hours on the type and a check ride of a commercial pilot. Angola no experience. If you're looking for a job in East Africa and you convert you're license to a let's say Tanzania one it's easyer to convert it to a Kenya and Ugandan one.

hope that helps,
Cheers
