You are absolutely correct! They are trying to get "uninformed" Techs from the U.K., to fill the void. If you look at the American job sites and want adds, you'll see masses of job openings for A&Ps. The trouble is, that the wheel has turned full circle, and the young guys are getting out of A&P school, and in most cases, going straight to the airlines, where they can suplement their medium salaries, with travel benefits medical and 401K plans, etc. I would advise anyone thinking of heading off to the "colonies" (oops!) to give it a lot of serious thought, more so, if you have a family to take with you. It's not all lifestyles of the rich and famous, especially on an A&Ps income.
Sorry to **ss on your bonfire, but that's the sad facts.
Best regards, Max
