What more can be said of the collapse? Such a wasted opportunity. I would hope the directors have the decency to fully repay any debts even if it means selling personal assets. After all, the creditors were never going to share in the profits, why should they be on the hook for the losses.
US regionals could care less what you’ve been flying so long as you meet the requirements for an FAA ATP and the visa requirements for an E3 visa.
skywest (us regional), commutair, Piedmont, transstates, expressjet are all desperate for pilots and will take E3 visa applicants. Personally I would go with the first three.
