"I've just recieved the right to work in SA and having been told by an insider at SAA to apply, I'm gonna be giving it a go." - Happy Pilot. That's great. Now all you have to do is pass (rather well) some very First World exams and flight tests and you should be well on your way.

(Better to have another African in there than a racist pig who'll push every black pilot down.)

Might be better to shed the attitude that if you're not a black African you're a rascist pig.

Oh dont you worry about those, its not exactly rocket science is it mate? And by the way, I wouldnt run around calling any part of SA a first world country or any of its exams. Its a lovely country but lets not get too carried away now. Cheers Mate!!!

I think 'our mate' Happy Pilot has lots to learn - I fear he may be in for some rude shocks if he ever gets to be employed in SA!

SKIER, I'll wager a quid to R1 000, Happy is a PPL who has just achieved an instrument rating which has generated illusions of grandeur, not to mention extreme confidence.

I fear you'd lose. I think he's just qualifed on MS Flight SIM.



(I know this is below the belt but I couldn't resist!)

Ooh, I see I've touched a nerve with this SAA issue here. Sorry if there's a chance of taking the space reserved for a white boy on your lovely SAA flightdeck, but I'm still gonna go ahead with it. For those who are worried about my qualifications, dont be. You only need to look at my very early posts to work out that I hold more than an PPL. PPL - No, ATPL - Yes, ex military - maybe. Although, I do like your flight sim certificate though. If the SAA issue hurts so much, dont worry I'll chuck in a CV with the police air wing aswell.

Thread shut down due to ego over-load.

Start another one if you're not done.
