With a JAR ATP, a Euro Passport, (and you probably speak about 14 languages), you stand a very much better chance in Europe than here. A freind of mine who got on at Finnair, for ex., got a salary that looks like a telephone number, and a new Volvo wagon on joining. A lot of pilots here and very few jobs. 6000 pounds is a lot less than cdn$ 30 000, which is what you will pay to buy a job at Jetsgo. That will get you a MD83 rating. Who the hell flies those?

You might try Air Georian in Toronto. (you have B1900 time) . But you will start as a loader on caravans. Also, you might find that Canadian immigration are a lot like airlines. Expect a few 'chicken and egg' scenarios !!

Good luck.
