Climbt11thousand, yep, I certainly appreciate what you're going through. I ended up in the UK (for various reasons) and eventually scored a biz jet job.
I really do think Africa will just frustrate you, if you had Hawker time, I know of a few jobs in Africa but...
I'm thinking you'll be chasing some multi-pilot time now?
I'm sure you're aware it's a cyclical industry and when it takes off (excuse the pun) it really booms.
So if I were you, keep a weather eye out on Flight International. Look for who's hiring engineers and sim instructors. Usually means they're ramping up things.
