Hey Larsen

If you are ready to fly for food, you may want to try STA MALI. They operate 2 L410s out of Bamako. The boss, Mr. Sabague, is a notorious slave-driver, but if you have nothing else call him: he recruits pilots with very low time, and if you are Let-typed you may catch his attention.

BUT: Do you speak French??? :rolleyes:

Good luck.

Bonjour and that sort.

There are some in Nigeria and Malabo. Sorry do not have any company info on those. Neither do I have any info on Western Africa.

TAC from Congo Brazzaville has 1 crewd by Russians with very little flying like 150 hours a year. apparently only Russians to this type as salaries are not up to western standards.

Business Express has, I think 2 newer models flying to and from DRC and Congo Brazzaville. I have seen these in Pointe Noire, Kinshasa, Brazzaville and Libreville. I know they have European pilots on those. Seem to remeber seeing soem L410´s in Libreville as well other than Business Express.

Hope this helped a little

You can find L410s at:

- Business Aviation, Kinshasa (2).

- La Nationale, Libreville (1 or 2).

- Air Max, Libreville (1 or 2).

- STA Mali, Bamako (2)
French boss Mr. Sabague, I believe somebody on this forum works for him and can give you more info on that.

All of these companies employ at least a couple Western Europeans or South Africans so I assume the wages are reasonnable. Sorry I do not have the contacts here.

Bonne chance à toi.

Try in West Africa. West Coast airlines, and the WFP. This last one is LZ registered. Sorry, don't know the operator, but will try to find out.

e-mail me direct for more info.
Cheers

Hi Let 410 driver,

For Libreville the 2 air max let's are gone (parked last week at Cotonou!!) and the 410's for La nationale are gone also, they use F27's at this date.
At Libreville 3 new lets (UVPE) on lease with crews (ZS)
That's all today.
Soft landing.:)

[Gunship]

Flyer and Split Bus,

I have not seen the WFP Let lately in Sierra Leone, but have seen the one in Guinea picking up pax at Conackry last week. French is definately compulsory in Guinea.

Re West Coast Airlines ; I know the owners very well - unfirtunately they just hire the cheapest - so Bulgarians / Poles and Russians get paid peanuts flying for them.

Ons aircraft operate between lungi and Hastings airport in SL (due to Paramount Airlines being grounded with their Mi-8's) and the ferries being u/s.

Otherwise only charter work in SL, NO schedules anymore.
So they just operate out of and inside Guinea. The best to speak to is Mohammed or Uncle - spelled as "Oencle" an the desk in Conackry. Mohammed is the fat Lebanese and Uncle the dirty one with the grey shirt always sticking out, black/ grey pants, white socks and black shoes - gauranteed ;)

[walkertonio]

Ok guys,

Thanks for your help, I heard about this plane in guinea and also in Lomé, ( anyone has news about this ? )
I heard about ferry flight last month from sao tomé, is there a company there or something flying ?

If there is anybody in Lomé or in madagascar , i'll be moving there soon, I'll be pleased to meet you.

Bye bye

[Treetopflyer]

Hey Walker

I was based in Lomé 'til recently, and I spent a couple days there last week. The only company actually based there is Transtel, and they only operate a Viscount 800 and a B721. They are not recruiting at present, and will require RR Dart or B727 experience to get on. I have not seen or heard of a L410 there.

There is really little aviation activity in Lomé, you would be better off going to Central Africa -- Douala, Libreville, Kinshasa and the like.

Good luck.

[walkertonio]

Thanks a lot

You have any information on kinshasa, libreville, douala, about companies there ?

I heard some months ago that a company in canada was recruitong crew on 727 without to much experience, did you hear about this ?

MERRY X-MAS !!! and see you next year with so much job that you will ask for holidays :D :D

[flyboy2]

Hi Guys

One LET 410 UVP was en-route to Douala last week & will be needing crew shortly,but I have no immediate contact available with the owner.

There may be 2 LET's operational in Mocambique next month
& they will need crews- so wait & see if they contact all of you via this Forum

Compliments of the Season
;)

[kokiliba]

Hi everybody,
I'm working for STA-Mali since 2 years and I'm Captain on L410.
I would like to move now, and why not in Douala...if anyone has more info, E-mail me please....
I can also give you full information about STA-Mali...


Cheers

Hi there

I did the ferry flight of the LET from Sao Tome to Madagascar last month... nice trip actually.
Regarding the crew needed for the one going to Douala, I have been contacted to go, but I didn't want for many reasons. I'm afraid they found the crew they were looking for... with a little bit of my help.
"Business" in Kin La Belle is OK, but manage to get your money as when I worked for them in LBV and Kin in July, it took them 4 months to pay..
There's some other LET in DRC also. For the LETs supposed to go to Moçambique, e-mail me if you know the company recruiting, so I will give you some advice if I can.
