You have opened the door to adventure if you take this job. QOL and Africa don't really belong in the same sentence; few exceptions of course.
you have a G V type rating? I would suggest following those leads before WG. Its just another Miami based POS airline.
Good luck!
My two billed muddy hen told me today, that we can expect one -400 basic boeing freighter by middle of Oct. the 2nd one will go through a C check first, probably online in November, and the ERF coming after the new year. Just sayin!

I never said the current rules should stay. God knows we need some new and better rules, but the same rules for all airlines is not the answer.
I've been in the non-sched world my whole career. Both PAX and cargo. While much of the flying is scheduled, much is not! One set of rules is not the answer! Supplemental carriers DO provide a service to the world that sched pax and cargo operations do not. We do need some new rules, but United...
