To get a chance to fly in Africa or Asia, you generally need at least around 1000 hours TT. It is absolutely crazy because the maintenance, conditions and salary are more than CRAP overthere !! The only positive point to fly there is to gain lots of hours very quickly... if you manage to stay alive .

In Myanmar, try AirMandalay, Air Yangon or airBagan.
If you prefer to remain in europe, try AirContractors, they're getting planes
just now.

perhaps burma

I happen to know from a reliable source that air mandalay in burma has lost a number of pilots of late and if you are rated may I suggest you try them. you can try calling them and ask to speak to mr eric I'm not sure of his last name. I believe he is the person in charge of hiring pilots. Check their website for the tel number.

happy landings!

I doubt if Air Pacific is much of an opportunity as I believe they intend to initially utilise MCA Captains with local FOs.

Hansung have recently received their 2nd 72-200 (ex PrecisionAir) and are looking for suitably qualified crews but I again believe P1 only.

I got the following mail from rishworth recently if that's any help. I haven't heard from them since 1 and a half weeks now.


Just wanted to keep you in the loop on what’s going on with the Air Pacific contract. The airline has the aircraft but at this point they are facing some legal issues with regards to being able to use the aircraft domestically. They are ironing this out this week, so I expect to give you another update some time early next week

Most of the expat jobs I've seen want 500 hrs on type. Admittedly, Rishworth's NZ contract asks for 350... but I've only got just over 100 on type (that'll teach me to go freelance!)... aarrgghh!! Any ideas on which of the many airlines quoted in this thread might be the best bet?

the brokker ask's for 500 cause its the Indian minimum for granting a validacion
to fly ATR the best package is Kingfisher
after that is JetAirways
then Allianceair (also in india, from Indian airlines)
all this give tickets to go home evry 6 or 8 weeks depending contract
its a confirmed seat, no BS of stby, weeks off aRe "paid"
this are commuting jobs, India could get into your head
but when you learn to adapt to dirt, honkinig horn noise, it should be ok
youll get pump up when you see the money on your b/acc
people are very very friendly
so no problem for me, better than some places ive been to in the world
no Attitude problem so far

FBOZH,
Thanks for your info. I also have heard that they have a little bit of sorting out to do in Fiji....

I know that there are some shortage in burma but not sure if they still take any expats. Some of my mates are already out from there. Sounds like burma is not really a ' goldenland '.

ATR Recruitment at Jet Airways, India

For ATR recruitment contact Jet Airways in India, I hear they are always looking for ATR pilots .. u can contact their ATR Fleet manager, Capt.S.Singh on [email protected]. I am sure he can help you.

Cheers...All the Best...
