As for criticising American airlines for not sponsoring pilots from abroad. Well why would they? Their mailboxes are crammed with resumes from appropriately experienced American and green carded pilots already. Why on earth would they need to trawl Europe for pilots?
thanks god ONLY irish CAA is doing that and I understand that only aer aran, cityjet and ryanair do hire non european pilots ! it is absolutaly
scandalous, but the good news is that we can be sure that british CAA, spanish CAA, french CAA, dutch CAA, italian CAA, portugeese CAA, and all the other european CAAs
will NEVER EVER hire you guys, beacuse they are fair, they have enough european pilots and they dont need americans !!
so American mates your only future in europe is Cityjet, aer arann or Ryanair, that 's all and

you and go back home

!!
