Hey y'all.

I'm strongly considering moving to Africa to find myself another job. I have a Canadian Class 4 Instructor Rating that expires Feb. 2015. Would this still be considered an asset to employers. I have 900 TT, 600 PIC and 120 C172 with no experience on C 200's but about 500 hrs on tail draggers. How will I look in the eyes of employers based on flight times? Thank you!

-Tail Timer
Tail Timer, if I could list those qualifications, I'd be in Maun this December. Perhaps with a stop somewhere in the U.S. for C206 time. If I were Canadian however, I'd be just as enthusiastic about a bush pilot job up there.
I suppose I should disclaim this by saying I'm not a pilot, only dream of being one, and have been gathering information for a year or so on Maun and other such places. Best of luck to you.

On another note. I love this thread, I only wish we'd hear more from pilots working in Maun.
