if you like living in a hut, in a third world country, with no electricity or running water... then flying into war torn remote areas, are easily scared by multiple automatic weapon toting thrid world military types claiming your not legally there and must surrender your plane and cargo..... or having to go around because the tank just pulled out onto and is blocking your "runway" (dirt path) and you don't have enough fuel to get anywhere else.....
then by all means, your just the guy/gal they are looking for.

Sounds like an awesome job.
They can be sure not to get timebuilders, 1500 PIC ATP preferred...

Yeah I called and sent them my resume a while ago and they were pretty firm about the 1500 PIC requirement. There's a lot of information about Air Serv (they don't spell it with an "e" at the end for some reason) on pprune.net. Check the Africa boards. Seems to be more bad stuff than good, but check it out. Also, here are a couple of blogs from two guys who spent a year in Africa flying for them. Some of the stories are pretty entertaining.
