Instructing in S. Africa

[DJ 2]

Hi all,

Just wondering if anybody knows of any flying schools in S.Africa looking for instructors?

I am British but have a lot of family in PE and have done loads of flying there. I am considering moving overseas to work and would like to know if any brits have managed to get instructing jobs in S.A. It's such a wonderfull place I'd love to work there.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I did.

I am a limey and I did instructing for two years.
Enjoyed it beautiful country, I would say the schools like to give instructing jobs to thier own students after they have qualified, however don't let that put you off. Go for it however if you have family down thier great, as the work permit is a real pain real bummer to get.Try Progress they we have poached two of their instructors at our company and it is a nice school.

The owner is from UK although he left many years ago.

Blue Chip at Wonderboom in Pretoria had some sort of instructor internship deal a couple of years ago. No nothing about it or if they still run the scheme but might be worth enquiring.
