JOB MARKET IN SPAIN

Dear DX
I am an Aeromadrid SIM instructor on my free days and 320 Cpt for a major airlne in Spain.
Airlines job chances in Spain are slim at best. IB, which has always set the market trends in Spain hasnt hired a single pilot in the last , i guess 4 years. The number of unemployed spnish pilots is said to go up to 4000 in a population of 5000 at the max.
The new low cost airlines just hire either experienced TRated personnel or management relatives. So forget that path.
However, if your intention is to settle down in Spain and you are an English native speaker my personal impression is that it wont be unlikely that youŽll be offered a position as a flight instructor in any of the Spanish schools that are surviving through european students.
Hope this info helps u and PM if u need have any more queries.
