I have a US Green Card and could gain employment in the US-so thats not the problem. I'm not sure on what the hiring is like inthe US at the moment. I'd think that it's real bad. Even at instructor level-anyone want to put me right on that idea?? The idea of Africa appeals to me, but I appreciate the advice on the instructing too. Being a wannabe ALL and ANY advice-however critical is crucial and important to me so thank you all. Without getting political or anything (I bear no grudges!!) Though I'm british, my folks are from Pakistan-I've this preconception that my being of an 'arab look' (I've no beard and am as british as they come) may be taken negativly for now in the flying industry in the US. It may work against me. I hope I'm wrong I really do. But from my shoes, I hope you guys can advice on alternatives. Hence the land of Africa. Comments always appreciated. Thank You.
