This thread is fantastic, very usefull. I am a low timer (fATPL, 200hrs) with a nice job at operations, but struggling to find my first flying job. I did a lot of online research about bush flying in Africa, and decided to come to Maun next winter (got to first save and get a big buffer...) if I have no luck te coming year. I also plan to take a bush flying course in South Africa coming spring. Do you think that is - besides an amazing and usefull experience - a good investment and will give me an advantage as a job seeker?
And another question: I heard from a Namibian pilot that logged simulator hours count as actual hours, is this true?
