pilots for Iraq
 

looking for links to get in touch with civilian contractors (fixed wing) in Iraq.
No luck so far. Anybody?

The reason that there's no info on contract jobs in Iraq is probably because there's no civilian flying.

Not much traffic between Basra and Mosul these days unless you're hauling SEALS or SAS types.

Good luck when things do calm down--it should be a bonanza for local flying.TC

P.S.--You think the Iraqi FAA will accept U.S. ATP's?;)

There's a post on Rotorheads looking for 7 x RW guys, 6 weeks on 2 off, ukp100,000 for 12 months.

Afghanistan close enough ? Pactec and AirServ...

I've seen the rotorhead forum, but my helo time is low. Thought, there might be a job for a fixed wing guy with an A&P.

An American contractor was "arrested" by rebels two days ago, he has made pleas for his life on Arab TV. Are you sure that you want to go to Iraq??


Mutt.

yes, I'm pretty sure,
thanks though

Watch out for the hords of people with dollar signs in their eyes and no sense of reality. It is so easy when you sit in a couch and be corageous...
By all means, show up in baghdad and lets see YOUR face on CNN. I understand that you want to break in to the industry, but this is not the way buddy

Anybody know a good flying school in either Bagdad or Basra? I was thinking of doing my IMC rating soon and I was told that the weather was ideal there. No icing problems and generally poor visibility due to haze/smoke. Not to bothered about being shot at, I did my PPL in Liverpool and was regulary shot at from the council estate when taxiing out to the runway.

lol
 

haha, yeah plus you can understand the locals that work in the control tower better than in liverpool, haha

Until things calm down in Iraq, I don't think it wise to be looking for employment over there at the moment.

Reading some of your above posts, some people value money more then their own lives??:confused: :confused:

I don`t recomend the frienship of a person who thinks his own value is a bag with some dollars.

He is financially and espirituality poor.

:yuk: :yuk: :yuk:

If Iraq is an ok place to fly, then any mudpit in Africa might be attractive.

You folks fell for that scam hook, line and sinker. ;)
