Jobs in Africa (2011 onwards) part 3.
Not all training received in the airlines should be considered irrelevant to flying in Africa. Lots of attitudes learned in the airlines can, with modifications, be well adapted into bush operations, and add extra safety to an otherwise go happy go lucky bush ops. The pilot who outright ditches the potential positives of an ex-airline pilot among the pilots/ops, will most likely never have set foot in an airline, and possibly never will. Having done both type of ops, back and forth twice, I think it's important for both types of pilots, to appreciate the strengths and weaknesses of each side of the industry.
