Post Low Hours Helicopter Pilots - Initial Jobs

Hi everybody, I'm a low experienced helicopter pilot, with a CPL JAA and a mountain of money (spent, already).

Finding a low hours job outhere is really difficult, everyone requires at least 500/1000/1500 hours, and without being an instructor I see it very difficult.

The real problem is that you end the CPL with about 200h and you can't start FI (CFI) course till 250 h...so how to do, at least, that 50h?

I started this thread to have some advice, usefull also for all the fresh pilots outside there looking for an apparently missing job to start.

If anyone have suggestion, we can travel worldwide, from the Ice of Antartica to the sand of Sahara and the jungle of Vietnam.

Waiting for your suggestion to us, your next colleagues.

Cheers,
EP
