dicko, I'd be willing to bet that the majority of the Limeys who instruct with you and want to keep flying in the US, were trained in the US. Most of the UK-trained QFIs I worked with in the US viewed it as either a temporary thing, or as the last job before retirement.
Maybe some see it as easier to get thee first job, but once I had the experience to get a 146 job, I took it- I didn't want to fly J41s and get food stamps to stay alive!
(Although the girls were nice, yes.......but so are the Italians/Spanish/German/Austrian/ Dutch/Irish/Finnish/Swiss/French who I met or worked with flying round Europe!
Getting dangerously off topic here, I'd better go to JB for a while.......
