It looks like this joy ride business is good for building hours in namibia and the surrouding countries like bostwana and tanzania, if you own an frozen ATPl and a CPL.
I was considering doing the ATPL formation in south africa because it is cheaper and it would be more convenient to build relations in this area.
I am just wondering if a South african ATPL is well considered by european operators, should the need to come back arise?
In Europe you almost certainly need an EASA CPL or ATPL. A few jobs *might* be do-able with an FAA licence, but very few if any with a South African licence.
Not so much an issue of whether it's "well considered" or not, just how the regulations work out.
