I find it hard to believe that you know many airline managers but cant find a single pilot to talk to. Even an airline manager can advice you a little bit if he is realted to operations, or perhaps knows someone in flight operations.
You also say "job landed" if you have your instructor rating. If its so landed, I assume you know someone at the place. How about asking them?
The way I see it, your options are
1- go ultralight
2- gain experience
3- move to UAE or Saudi
4- fly for/instruct the princes and other bigwigs who own and fly ultralights
alternatively
1- go to south africa, get your instructor rating
2- work up some hours
3- get in an airline
which sounds better to you?
