Anyone out there with information on East African Express out of Nairobi? Considered a contract with them awhile back and have been contacted again as they added an additional, what looked like to me, DC-9-10 or 15.

Great bunch of guys and gals,MD plays hardball....but that why he is so sucessfull.
If you have never worked in Africa before,it will be a culture shock!!!
Aircraft fly 7 days a week,some challenging strips to get into with heavy metal (Malindi,Kisumu etc)
Maintenance is good by African standards.
They recently lost and F28 at Loki,rumour has it there was abit of CRM problems up front,but leave that up to the relevant authorities.
As far as I am aware,the current DC 9's are registered in ZS,so technically you will have to get a ZS validation,then a 5Y validation ,but then again this is Africa.
Overall a good operation,gets my thumbs up
Please PM me for any further details.:ok:
