Ahh, you make me homesick. We lived in Bamako for 7 years, during which I also flew for SAS/MAF. Good video. Loved the people there.

Hi Erik. Most of this work (UN Contract flying) is done by SOuth African operators. You'd need to get you license validated by the CAA in SOuth Africa (2 written tests and a flight test) then get on with one of the 135 operators there who does this type of contract work. Russell

Thanks Russell for the quick reply.

Fantastic video! I'm an American CFII-MEI and would love to fly in Africa like you. How do you find these positions? I've traveled all over the world but have been unable to locate an aviation position. What type of qualifications/hours would I need?

Thanks and safe flying,

Erik
