SA CPL with Multi-engine IR
TT = 220.0
PIC = 100.3
Multi = 28.6
Single = 191.4
Retractable = 78.9
Night = 11.4
IF = 28.4 (ACTUAL) and 28.4 (FSTD)

Low hours but it's worth a shot!

Pilot looking for jobs
Hi guys.
I'm a low time pilot with a CAA CPL/MEP/IR with a frozen ATP (Subjects) looking for a co-pilot job in south africa and africa. I find references of jobs on the net but don't find the right people to contact.
Can you guys please advise on people to contact and places to go look. I want to become a Airline pilot one day so would like to fly BE200/1900 or similar stuff but don't have the ratings
PM me with info please
Thanks

Another one?
Hi Syckes,
Firstly, what kinda low hours are we talking about?
If its less than 500hrs, your chances of getting a sniff of a 200/1900 job are just as good as that of the right-hand seat in a 737. It just isn't happening in South Africa at the moment.
Go get an instructors or find the nearest skydiving school and drop meat bombs for a living. Right now, that's the only way of getting somewhere in SA at the moment. Harsh but true. Especially after 250k+ in training.
After finishing the comm, I contacted a couple of 200/1900 operators to enquire about my chances of a right-hand seat with a rating and a few hours on type. I could actually hear all of them falling off their chairs in hysterical laughter! Note: these are the same operators that the school I wanted to do my rating at advertised as "95% chance employers" after the course. Makes you think.
The only way (and best way) of getting there, is by working your way up. Employers like instruction time as they are not just employing junior FO's, but also future Captains, Training Captains and Fleet Captains who have the ability to train people.
My 2c worth.

A reminder.
This thread is for pilots interested in jobs in Africa, Not for individuals or companies looking to place unpaid advertisments. There is a link for companies and individuals seeking to advertise at the top of the page or Here
We are more than happy for companies to contact us with a view to placing an advertisement for crews, with the assurance of a good target reach. However it is a breach of our sign up rules to attempt to place unpaid advertising. Further it should perhaps serve as a caution to individuals who might be tempted to respond to those companies that are unwilling or unable to place an authorised advertisement.
