survey,
Just using Air Wisconsin as an example because the original post in the AvCanada thread I posted mentioned them, it's hard to tell how many Canadians AW hired by looking at the link to the visa website showing the company's expat hiring history. Some of that may be Aussies.
But, the email from AW to the guy seemed to indicate they were not unequivocally opposed to taking Canadians. So far, it's hard to tell what other US regionals are taking them (non-green card, that is) on a visa of some sort.
I'd be curious to know how many Americans availed themselves of the process to get a TCCA license based on an FAA ticket. I'll guess a smaller number than TCCA-FAA...just a guess.
Lots of variations on a theme in all this stuff.
