Well Too Tall, keep up the work, dont get to "Gatvol" and things will come together in time.

If you get a thousand hours and a VISA, give me a shout, who knows maybe you can fly with Hiro and I . They hire a lot of non- U.S. with the right flight time and VISA.
There are threads out here for training type Visas. I dont know much about them but take a look.
