I Was born in SA but left when I was 4 years of age to Canada and have been here since. There are alot of opportunities in aviation here Canada, but Im very curious as to how the industry is shapping up over there.
Is it tough to get a job for one who has 1000TT, Multi engine/IFR and Seaplane rating???
Is it difficult to obtain a work permit?
I'm Currently a flight instructor working out of Toronto. This is the typical route for pilots in Canada where you obtain your CPL, then instruct or fly floats until you hit about 1000 hrs where you then move on to a light twin or a single turbine A/c such as a pc-12. Then when you've hit about 2500TT with a min of 500 Multi PIC the airlines will then start looking at you.. Is this also typical in SA and other african nations. In all the industry is booming in Canada at the moment, Im just curious if thats the same in Africa as well.
Any imput at all would be great! Thanks!
