Hi,
Be carrefull with sort of proposition, in Gabon start up company are frequent.
Don't pay anything before you get the job and check everything before going.
I spend four years in this country. Feel free to email me.
Take care:)

:\ Stay away of Gabon...

Nothing is good there (except the night club). Go only if u can have 3 mounths cash upfront, otherwise you may never see the money...

Now lets talk about visa, licence and all that sh...t you may wait in a hotel room few weeks with no passport in your pocket...

Show me the money and I ll go otherwise... I prefered Sudan during the war...

And Gaboneese are not so nice with expat... not at all...:ugh:

See u

Flew with Air Gabon for a week or two. The equipment is stuffed, to put it mildly. That includes aircraft, navaids, CAA, ATC etc. The equipment you will be operating will be very old, poorly maintained and way past its sell by date! Weather terrible in the big rainy season - think twice, there are better places in Africa to work.:suspect:

Mobie,

I work in Gabon and -personnally- it is one of the best places in central africa. What kind of operation are they starting with a 737. Maybe I can find some info as I live in LBV.

Is Air Gabon operating in any form at this point? Are there any other big jet operators based there now?

Well the 737 operation looks at the best a weak chance or at the worst a scam.

Only contact is a cell phone and a laptop E-MAIL. I will forgo this one.
