The Libyan pilots will try to kill you on every flight. They will conspire with the Libyan FA's to steal tip money. There are all the usual frustrations with working in a third world socialist dictatorship, along with ****ty maintenance, no schedule, no duty rules, and actually no AOC. The Libyans are always running afoul of customs outside of Africa because they never have the required visas or a valid crew ID.
Haha! That made for a good laugh!! So nothing has changed in the past 10 years then!! Don't expect anything to change either..... What a ****** up place. Having said that my experience with local people I met at the butcher/bakery etc were all very friendly!
