flying in africa
Hi, I am about to take a one way trip to africa (from Europe) with my licence, garment and money with the intention to stay there forever.
What would you suggest is the best way to find an aviation related or even flight deck job. I got 500 hrs. total, 26 yrs old, frozen JAR ATPL, taildragger + short field experience , no type rating do you think it is an extrem risk to go there without connections? has anyone of you experiences in africa piloting ? (safari flying, surveillance, etc.) wherecan I get addresses to apply at from? yours lusthansa |
go and check on the African forum,lots of info....:ok:

Just remember that in Africa you shake a tree and a pilot falls out. Its a great place to have some fun and earn whilst you do it.
My advice is to give Solenta and NAC a go first (if you are off to south africa) if not pound the aprons there are many bush jobs out there all i can say is Good Luck and Enjoy |
Hi
A word of advice. Most of the reputable charter companies in Southern Africa will require you to have at least 1000 hours to drive their twin Aircraft. It is an insurance issue. Also there ius an awful lot of competion as well. You need more luck than skill to make it in Africa. Cheers Paddy |
