Where in the world: flying on (or converting) a NZ licence

Hi All,

I am a recently qualified CPL(H) with a New Zealand licence. I'm looking to see where there may be job opportunities around the world.

I am completely flexible about where that might be. It's unlikely to be in NZ or Oz due too visa restrictions (I'm a Brit, and unlikely to get a visa). So, I was looking for some help to try and narrow my search for places I should target.

Where in the world could I fly on a NZ licence, or convert it relatively easily?

I am pretty realistic about what I need to do to get into the industry. Happy to draw on by previous experience to support the business/crewing needs of a heli operation. But, it seems sensible to be thinking about what I would need to do to get licensed in a particular country.

Very grateful for any views or for people to share their experiences.

Thx.

AMM
