Ask not whether the job is ready for you, but rather, are you ready for the job...!

Try Airlines PNG. 1100 hours could get you a gig in the RHS of a Twin Otter. As long as you are prepared to live in a remote location.

The deal with the RHS FKA?

Its so you don't kill yourself...and everybody flying with you.

Time to command?

Couple of years probably - for quick learners, and never for dickheads.

Chuckles, I do have a fair idea about the flying over there and know that it is not something to jump straight into regardless of how ever many hours you have elsewhere. I was referring to whether or not hours are logged in the RHS and whether you would have a type rating etc. Couple of years sounds like bit of a stretch. Probably better off staying where I am
Not meaning to have a go, but from the tone of your post's I dare say your not ready for png. 2 years is not very long when there's so much to learn

@ Fresh Kiwi

You will find that most twotter RPT around the world is operated by two crew. The ones who operate single crew are usually parachute droppers and small VFR ops.

I havn't flown in PNG but I have flown with pilots who have. Play it safe, and you'll be fine. Just try not to crash land in the middle of the bush, they still eat each other up there u know...
