DC-9 Captain/F.0. contract Congo

[jetjackel]

A "headhunter" is soliciting for a DC-9 Capt./F.O. contract out of Kinshasa. The airline previously operated a B-727 but it is now apparantly unservicable. The local crews are receiving training and the contract is to operate the DC-9 until crews are trained. The pay is low as the Capt. position must be Instructor qualified. No life insurance or medical is being offered. With ebola virus in the north and not current on situation in congo, is anyone out there current on situation or know who the operator is?

I have also heard about this contract, sorry I don't know anything about Kinsasha or who the operator is.

Have you had enough at Crossair already??
Surely Crossair must be better than Kinsasha!!!

FuelFlow,

Finished at Crossair due to end of seasonal contract. Actually had enough of Crossair operations. Flying was great but marginally safe as the work rules induce fatigue and no time for anything else.

I am sure summer in Switzerland must have been great. I was there for the last winter, didn`t enjoy the operations myself. Only lasted 5 months on a 2 year contract.

I hope you find something soon!!!!
