Seggy:
Pprune might not be your best bet on how to apply for a flying job in Europe.
You will be most fortunate to attract any responses except for "cold comfort" and possible disinformation.
These types of requests for info in the past, other that sent to you via Pprune's personal e-mail, have incited serious trans-Atlantic debates which often lack any tactful choices of words.
The US government etc seems to have been less than open to foreign pilots wanting to work over here, even before 9/11, who were not somehow sponsored (as some Scandinavian guys several years ago at Pinnacle Airlines/NW Airlink told me-Pinnacle had pilots from quite a number of countries), or married to a local.
One of our pilots has a wife with documentation for a grandfather who came over from Italy. He could have worked in Europe, in theory
, but the JAR ratings conversions etc would have required major work and expenses, and he might not have been welcome even after all of that.
