Just find the address of every company in the world that you are prepared to move to work for and send them a CV.

If luck is going to smile on you then it will, just keep trying as long as you can afford to, and try to find a corner of aviation that perhaps no-one else might want. Exploit that while times are hard.

Good luck. I was once where you are some twenty five years ago.

Yes, nicely said Boeing Boy. We all started at one moment with very few hours, wondering about the future - so I feel it unfair to make jokes about the new ones in this business. What image are we going of our industry ? some people do the same with kids at high school, telling them "you are born too late, no longer any way to find a decent place under the sun in any business...)
Good luck friend from the Jacaranda city - I think especially in Africa there will always be people to be flown by air (long distances, no rail or decent road in many places)
I would have enjoyed flying in your country - but we just have one life....
