What's out there at the mo? What are they flying? Tried various searches, but drew a blank.

Hi all !!

Early this year, I remember seeing an advert for Helicopter pilots in Brunei.
Are they still hiring? If so how do I get in touch?
Anybody worked with them before???
What's the pay like? Working conditions? And, importantly, accomodation??
Is it true that they're giving free S92 Conversion?
Any info is greatly appreciated...

To all the above,
Why don't you PM 212man, he's out there at the the moment.

Probably not much I'd say that I wouldn't say here.

3 S-61s at the moment that will be replaced by Q1 2007 with 3 S-92s. I'll post some pictures when they arrive.

Recruiting over for forseeable future.

Helps if you have a pre-existing S61 rating plus a couple of thousand hours under your belt. All in all a nice operation to work in.
Although it's run by an equivalent to the CIA. Everything's top secret. heheh Pay is good for expats. Last person who left takes home roughly 70+ sterling a year.. no tax maybe he makes more as CP in Scotia.
Accomodation quite good situated near the Shell Panaga Club.. good for golfing , tennis(sandy artificial grass lawn...), swimming, sailing , footie , rugby and the occasional cricket( maybe obsolete).
Currently ridiculously short of pilots , management won't admit it
