Oh yeah Edd the Rodger is right but expect long hours low pay and for the most part crappy machines

Also the airstrip is now administrered under the capable hands of the Kenyan DCA. backhanders required

Hi Chocolate

Speak to the operators at Wilson Airport, Nairobi. Most of the Loki contracts are operated through there. Having a Kenyan licence is a must, getting a work permit if you are not a citizen is extremely difficult. I had to wait weeks to get a temporary permit to fly a South African registered aircraft.
Kenyan immigration and their unemployed pilots do not take lightly to foreign pilots taking their work.
Otherwise go to Loki directly, there are a few operators who have their bases there.

Good luck, Kernel

Send a c.v. to Peter Gregory or Sam Provenzano at Alliance Aviation [email protected] - I understand he has been hiring on behalf of a new venture
