Gud offer!!! its been on for a while now but y Helicopter Pilots alone???
am always high like a bristow helicopter, does that make me the bestman for this offer
But for the 1 year post-NYSC experience requirement i would have given it a go?
This offer is not bad just that the risk make me feel pretty cold, i rather remain on ground while searching for job not in the air.
I’m gonna fly!
this is a dream come true. i believe i will get this job
Can u pls remove the NYSC, so that I can enter and I believe I will do well for you.
Pls reply me if it will be possible.
I pray i will be offered this opportunity. thanks
I love to fly and have seven years working experience but am more than 28 years, can I apply?

wonderful oppourtunity,this is great,i had always dream of this oppurtunity all my life,
but some of us are about going for service in august can we apply.i need a response
this is a brilliant offer but it cuts out people like me who haven’t got there nysc certificate. i know for a fact that u don’t need a college degree to train as a pilot so why the fuss on nysc. i wish you guys would reconsider cuz i have a passion for flying and this nysc requirement thing is like robbing me of my dream. pls get back to me if theres any chance at all cuz i believe i’ve got what it takes to make the bristow team.
This is great opportunity which I believe is Lord’s doing and its mavelous in my side, I have been yearning for such priviledge from my youth, But I pray you- you will not make God’s own time to be late in my life because I am over the prefered Age limit. It’s a dream coming to reality. I will sualy make a land mark if given the priviledge.
I had always thought of flying in the Aviation Industry and it’s not going to be my limits.I’ve riden and driven sucesssfully on earth with no incidents or cases of accidents recorded,not by my power anyway but God who has been doing it.It’s time now I think to fly my people in SAFETY..! The tide of CRASHES has got to stop in the Industry,but there is a problem.What you ask?I just got the information online today.Could there possibly be an e-mail application and extension of the closing date?Managemet has got to consider this because you need me there.Contact me via 08030994452,08081309089,08034341906(Stallion Motors Ltd Calabar)
