BTW, there's NO NEED TO SHOUT I'M NOT DEAF.

(sorry, pet peeve. LEARN WHERE YOUR CAps lock button is).

Your only hope of getting a job in the US is via a J-1 visa, which you may (or may not) get by filling in the appropriate forms, crossing a flying school's palm with an appropriate amount of silver, and sitting for ages in the US embassy in London.

Even then, you will probably be restricted to instructing (but not necessarily).

Unless, of course, you are from anywhere else in Europe, originally, in which case you might be eligable to apply for the Diversity Visa Immigration Programme (otherwise known as the Green Card Lottery),

Hope this helps... and take all the stuff about CAPS LOck with a pinch of salt but PLEASE DON'T MAKE A HABIT OF IT!!!!! (it's nearly as irritating as people who stand on both sides of the escalator).
