Bush Flying
Hello all.
Now, before I start, I know this is a VERY vague question, but bare with me
.
I did a bit of digging but couldn't find anything, so here goes...
If I was to go out to Africa with a fATPL and around 250hours, got a job bush flying, how much would I expect roughly a year? (money, of course
)
Sorry for the vagueness of the question

Many thanks for the replies.
Doesn't look like bush flying will be an option for me once I've finished (hopefully) ATPL training in a few years time Don't think I could afford to pay off the loan on that pay
Thanks once again

roxar,
a reasonable competence at spelling, punctuation and grammar will take you far. No Chief Pilot will look beyond the first line of your letter/cv if written in the nonsense you've posted here. If you present yourself in illiterate text-messaging chav-speak you are not going to make much of an impression as a Professional Pilot...no matter what technical qualifications you have.
