TLT,
While your qualifications certainly have value it's hard to say if a particular airline would see them as value or someone not trainable to "their" way. They have some peculiar attitudes about some things.
My observation is that instructor pilots come in two versions: (1) those who are pilots on the airline's seniority list...(2) those hired as contractors but are not on the seniority list. I get the impression the non-seniority-list instructors aren't paid all that well. Those on the list are paid quite well.
Do you have the legal ability to live/work in the USA ?
You might ask your questions on jetcareers.com It's run by a Delta pilot with serious connections to Delta.
Here's a link to a discussion of one airline's instructor thing:
