Hello,

I would like to get some information on the Namibian FTO mentioned above

a) who of you made his education to become a pilot there?
b) who worked / works there and give any feedback?
c) do they have a kind of career center to support "freshmen" to get into a cockpit of an airline for the first time?
d) how safe are their aircraft?
e) how big is the school?
f) do they have a website ? google did not help here
g) any other remarks?

thx in advance, lusthansa

Yep, the training gets done there, the standard of training seems ok. The standard (maintenance wise) of the aircraft seem to be ok....although we have witnessed a couple of partial engine failures and power losses in the last month or two. i would hate to guess of how many incidents we don't hear ....

As with finding jobs in an airline ..... dream on!!!!!! Unless of course you are eligible for affirmative action employment. For that you basically don't even need a license .... or know anybody in important positions.

School not to big, I think they employ currently about 3 or 4 instructors. Since owners changed things seem to have improved. Give them a phone call for further detailed info.
