Just a little more info, from Mexico.

Click through mexicana and ASPA.
azteca is hiring, min flight time 500 valid hrs.
New airlines, GOL, sep 06. Aerobus, july 06.
FOs will be promoted to CAP after around 6 months. They are using old experienced captains for the first 6 - 8 months, so the FOs get experience and can fly as captains after the first 6-8 months. Non experienced can expect promotion to cap in around 2-3 years
Note you cannot be a mexican pilot if you have two passports, mexican constitution prohibits any foreign citizen or anyone with 2 passports to be a pilot. But you can get around it by:
1- Do the mexican pilot training in mexico and NEVER show any other passport.
2- Do the convertion, with a license that says you are mexican, NEVER turn anything in that says you have an other nationality, takes around 4 months for paperwork to go through in mexico. they don't like to convert licenses.
good luck
