US Expats

Hey all,

I'm a US pilot on my first flying job and I'm curious as to how many US pilots work overseas. I've read about carriers like Emirates and Cathay Pacific that tend to hire a sizeable number of expats... was wondering if many US pilots flew for such airlines.
Also, are there many US pilots flying in Europe? I know obtaining JAA certificates and the legal permission to work in the EU are neccessary, but it seems that most European carriers shy away from hiring outside their own borders.
Just wanted to see if such an undertaking is possible!

Cheers,
Chris
