Summarise as thus:

Great scenery (A few choice tourists as well!!)
OZ, NZ & UK licences preferred
CAA Fiji (known as CAAFI) can tell you more - their office is in Nadi
Pay is crap, maintenance often not much better.....
Lifestyle is cruzy
Going more for locals as DHC6 FO's rather than direct entry CPTs
Mins for expat CPTs are usually 2-3000 hrs +trubine (PT6) time
Big hours (800-1000 pa is std)
Most expats are Ozzies or Kiwis with a few Cannucks on floats
Types are - BN2, DHC6, EMB110, EMB120, Y12 (yuk!)

A great start off job if you can get it, have many friends now in QF, CX & Air NZ who went the Fiji way to build hours....

Adios
