The flying is easy, weather is benign, the colleagues are mostly delightful. The equipment is fine. CAAFI standards declined with the enforced departure of the previous Chief Inspector.
Only flew about 600 hours per year. Layovers were a pleasure.
Crew food was awful though. Carrot sandwich, honestly!
No anti expat behaviour, quite the opposite. Despite what is on here, I really enjoyed my time there.

The only problem that exists is the simpletons in charge. Rostering buffoon and village chief ( can't call him a pilot as he is grounded), both out of their depth.

For a short term placement with no possibility of upgrade, it is hard to beat. Since I left I have directed a few friends towards Fiji, with a proper briefing of course.
