Wings Air ATR captain question.

I've been trying various agencies for ATR42/72 captain contracts without much success. I've flown on a contract before but not through an agency. I have a FAA ATP & ATR42/72 TR and generally have more than enough time in type, PIC, etc, with no surprise ghosts lingering about. I have also lived and flown in Indonesia before although not on the ATR or for Wings/Lion. For some reason I can't get get the ball rolling with the agency Wings uses. I am thinking of taking a holiday and going to Jakarta myself. Any Wings ATR contract captains want to PM me and let me know if this is even half-way reasonable and what I should do if it is?

Thanks in advance.

have you tried Rishworth? I think they are the sole agency for Wings.

Yes, I tired Rishworth. It is a currency issue with them or with Wings, Rishowrth doesn't seem to be interested in forwarding what I have listed to Wings. It is absurd to go and pay $17,000 and maybe not even get an interview/ screening. Aviation has become a bit of a gulag, trapped by type and currency.
