Nigerian Expat Pilot

Hi Guys/Gals,
I was wondering if its possible for me to apply to any airline in other parts of Africa as an expat pilot, I have done all my flying in Nigeria and have had fun so far but would like to expand my horizons and I would love to fly in Africa ( Central or South). I have approx 6000hrs of which 3000 is on jets and the rest on pistons/Turbo props.
I Cant relocate my family so if any person with knowledge of a job with 4weeks on 2 weeeks off or something similar i would appreciate the heads up .

Before it becomes an issue I do love Nigeria but I am looking for a bit of excitment.

Hey mate
Try Gabon there's a lot of corporate flying going on there and they're short of drivers,angola too.If u intend to work on a contract basis then there's no need to relocate ur family have them stayed back home and when u get ur time off go home and spend some good time with them,u'll save a lot by doing so

How about some of the contract companies in SA and Kenya? ET may be the way to go as they have branches in both.
