So this about says it all about this employment opportunity. I fly the region a lot. Why would you even consider employing RJ First Officers from the States? Of course they will bail, and some of them, feeling that you betrayed them, will not be kind when they leave. Tony, you have forgotten what a shock it was to the system the first time you showed up for a flight in Africa. You started your expat career when things were bad here in the US and you didn't have the opportunity to go back as readily as pilots do today. Things are not so bad anymore in the US. I think you would be much better off financially, to pay high dollars to experienced Afgan flyers who know what they are getting into, and are only doing it for the money. Your training and reliability factor would be much better and less expensive in the long run. Pilots coming to your operation to "see the world" will not like what they see and will soon leave. If you are interested in an experienced(it has been 6 years since I have flown the 2/7/9) CL65 pilot with Afgan experience and are willing to pay me $175,000.00 or more a year with a good health care policy then send me a PM. If not, then I think you are wasting your time and are doomed to failure. Just my opinion. Good luck to you.
