For some reason I come and read this forum, but for the life of me I don't know why?!
So much dross coming from these morons. I've only been flying here in "real Africa" for 3 years. It is not that hard, it isn't that dangerous and you don't have to be a macho marlboro smoking cowboy to hack it. Just rock up, keep you head screwed on, get stuck in and have fun.
As for jobs I spoke to coastal by email in Tanzania and they said I should fly down there next week and if I stay to work they will reimburse my flight! starting in a c206 and upto c208 when proved myself, if i remember. And as for the boredom thing, 90% of us started flying for fun and excitement, so if his job isnt that anymore, he should pack up and move on. And guess what? If he moves here to work that means there is a flying slot in India so maybe one of this forums idiots can rock up over there and get it!??!
I'm in Africa and think you should come on over.

Me too, I only flew in "real Africa" for 3 years up until recently so what do I know about getting jobs there? And the fact my location says UK, is only because I was in the UK some years ago when I registered on PPrune, so I really dont understand any connection about this issue of advice and location?????

Yes but you see - LOGS says that coming over on speculation is not an option for him so it is hard to see what he can do from where he is unless he does exactly what he really should do but whcih he says he cannot?

Well suitcaseman, you may have been flying in Africa for the last God knows how long, good for you, but I'm sure the internet wasnt invented then(sorry to rub it in). Thankfully for the new generation, it has been invented. So in the words of my CRM instructor, use all the resources available to you. The guy wants recent advice, thats what I've given him, and also gave him an example of guys who I flew the dash with who never stepped foot in Africa but used the internet effectively. LOGs you have my advice, as i said earlier, if you need some assisstance, send me a PM(making use of the internet again). You'll love Africa!!!
