I was researching about chile´s and argentinian´s pilot jobs and I found out that in Patagonia and south territories there´s a risen need of pilots, due to the growth of extreme sportsman tourism , plain tourism and fishfarms.
I already had a look to Aerovías DAP, but they´re not answering...
does anybody know something about this kind of jobs..?
any experiencience down there? :ok:

thanks!

To fly in Argentina you need to be Argentinian...
DAP won't hire you unless you have a pretty solid background in DHC-6 and even with that i'll say its very hard to get in....
DAP Pilots are very well skilled and most of them Air-force retired, they commonly hand-pick those who operated in Punta Arenas during their time under uniform (quite tricky to fly there) Chief Pilot, Operations Manager and almost any senior position are all FACH retired.
Natales Cry for a Flying gig that takes people over the National Park :ok:
