First Job in Africa

Hi Folks

Would any of you have a list of companies in Africa that are hiring at the moment.

I have a Danish mate who is an instructor in the US and has a JAA fATPL with about 750 hours

Hi multi time is low - only 40 hours or so......

Bearing all that in mind, could you recommend anywhere he could try?

Thanks in advance for your time

Safe skies

Wayne

What's the Deal?

I'd really like to work in Africa... But I'm still learning about the situation...

What is the arrangement in different countries with foreign licenses... I hold Canadian licenses and don't want to hassle too much with conversions, are some countries easier than others?

Also how about some suggestions on countries/companies to start looking into. I am not really high time, about 1000 hours mostly ME IFR.

Finally is there a season when it is busiest? When most of the hiring takes place?

I know this is pretty general but any info is great. Thanks.

Canadian, my experience, all foreigners come to Africa and think they know it all, are arrogant and develop an attitude that cannot be backed up by their miniscule skills. Stay where you are, I promise we don’t need you, and if you need us, we don’t need you. We have enough pilots here. By the way, off the subject. Reading the Russians record over the past few days I wonder if the PARCEL company still thinks them Russian AC are up to scratch. Another loss for the night fighters I think! Jokes on who, the foreigners flying in Africa or the well maintained AC in Africa to be used for the safe passage of parcels? Next joke please.

oompilot -

#1 Sounds like you're the arrogant one with an attitude.
#2 I don't need you, but looks like you need me to pump your ego. No doubt a result of your lack of skill or penis size or both.
#3 Why don't you show us how smart you are by contributing something positive.

Anyway I'm still interested, any info is great...

Oompilot, in my country we call your attitude being racist.
You are obviously frustrated.

126.9...any good news?

Hello everyboby!

I wonder if this would be the longest-living Pprune.com forum ever....I joined long time tima ago from a galaxy (Star wars junkies please note location...) far, far away!

Now the saga is (hopefully) completed but I wonder if anyone got good news from 126.9. A friend of mine went to Africa (Vic's falls) and told me they are looking for many pilots but life is doomed to be weird. At this point I say better than....nothing! I am not willing to take on anything if is not worth but I wish I had at least an hint...just to know how life could be for a while.

May the force be with you!

Take care

PZ
