Hey guys, I'm planning to arrive in Windhoek in the first week of April. Anyone keen to meet up?:)
Would you guys advise me to complete CRM and DG certificates before arriving? It isn't stated as a requirement on the Wilderness website? |
WAIR does it's own in-house training for DG and CRM
|
Awesome vid Des.Vaisselles!
Kiloaranov, keen to meet up. Don't think it's as easy to get jobs anymore though, keeping my expectations low from what I've heard. Pilotpaul, any luck? |
Friend of mine (local Namibian SACAA ME/IF rated) got told by companies in the Windhoek area that a C210 rating is required. They only want to talk about employment once rated on the 210....and that is an expensive rating in Namibia. Hourly rate he was quoted ~5.5k ZAR vs 2.9k ZAR with a local guy in Cape Town. Both wet.
|
Does anyone know how many hours on the C210 one needs to be considered "rated"?
Over here in Australia we don't have ratings for individual aircraft unless the aircraft requires a type rating. You need 5 hours to generally be endorsed on an aircraft. |
you dont need much. As long as you have PIC time on the 210 you can be considered "rated".
|
Same here Kilo. No PIC hour requirements to be considered rated. Only need to have the endorsement :ok:
|
Thanks very much Gents! I look forward to seeing you both there. I know I'm gonna be late for the season but the earliest I can arrive is the start of May.
|
Anyone in Windhoek around the end of May?
Just wondering if anyone is in Namibia right now and knew how the prospects are looking for this season? I will be coming over around the end of May/early June. Also I was curious if anyone in Windhoek area possibly wanted to meet up around that time to chat! :)
|
I'm planning to head to Namibia. Do they hire CPL with multi IFR at 220TT ??
What's the minimum ? |
More of a general question to everyone thinking of going to Namibia: Why Namibia and not Botswana?
|
@carrot123
I think people are considering Namibia because they seem to have lower hour requirements. Namibia = TT300 Botswana = TT500 |
I'm planning to come down in October. Probably stay there from 1st October till end November. After I get some C210 time and my Multi in US in June.
How's the jobs looking currently and conversion/visa process? I'm gonna apply with 360TT FAA CPL ASEL/MEL. Any cheap places to stay? I dont mind pitching up a tent. |

Goòd afternoon
I am contacting on behalf of a friend looking for a contract fkying job in Nam. She is a Namibian and has her CPL license. Anyway you can help? Can you please send me some of your contacts information? I will really appreciate it. |
Varundatta, i strongly do recommend Chameleon Backpackers.
|
Misha4, tell your friend to google for the company Desert Air. Since she is Namibian, she probably speaks Afrikaans.

Hi everyone!
I'm stil studing for the ATPL, I'm obtaining my license in October (aprox.) and my idea is going to Africa to work as soon as I finish the ATPL course. Do you know if I need any previous experience or if they will ask me for having some hours of flight?? I would appreciate your reply!! |
Hello,
Is anyone currently in or recently in Namibia who could share their experience there? |
