Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this. If I'm keen, and pop round to see as many operators as I can while I'm over there (late April), will someone be interested? What are my chances for getting an interview with the above mentioned companies? Will I be too late, and end up hanging around for months? I read on a couple of threads that most guys get hired around Jan-Feb. I am planning on heading over to Namibia or Botswana in late April to try and get an interview. I have just over 300 hours, including some time meat-bombing. I have an Australian CPL, Instrument Rating (Multi-engine), and Frozen ATPL. prospective promotion and upgrades onto multi-engine.ģ. Which of these companies is the best to get into? with regards to:Ģ.
I understand the pay will not be great, but I will have lots of great experiences. I want to rough it for a couple of years to "do my time" for some real character-building. I am keen for an adventure, and realise that at some times it will be tough. It appears that all of them have a really well-balanced fleet, with lots of singles down the bottom, and then twins and turbines further up. My first question is to current or past pilots of those companies: Sefofane, Wings over Africa, West Air, Scenic Air etc.) I've done some research on the net and have been searching these forums, and I'm very keen on flying for one of the companies mentioned previously on this thread in Namibia or Botswana. This looks like the best place to post these questions and queries of mine.

Will have to a validation on license and do nam medical,unless it's changed. PS try and obtain a C210 rating before going to Namibia

Swakopmund,Coastal Town,Namibia(AWESOME place!)ġ.Pleasure Flights& Safaris(Speak to Mr.Goebel,owner)Ģ.Scenic Air (Mrs.van Niekerk,manageress)Īnd most importantly,great flying,when you leave this country you will have stayed in the most awesome lodges,gone on game-drives,eaten good food,unforgettable experience and you will probably know how to fly a C210! These are the best ones there,you will fly C206,Britan Norman Islander and probably C208.Great place where you can live well although very African.7 out of 10 rating from my sideĦ.West Air (take mostly Namibian citizens,try anyway)
If u are still keen on going for it then try the following companies,I have worked for two and the one's I'm suggesting are the ones with quite reputations in all aspects.A good first job in Africa can be very exciting and satisfying although the money is not always great,but hey I survived it and always had money for food,accommodation and most importantly beer after work! Some of the above facts are true about some operators in Africa although not all.
