Mmm. Although belargusa means well i agree with Boeing100.
I have been through the US Immigration system and it is long, complicated, expensive and is subject to frequent change.
The reality is that with the economy shrinking fast in the US and pilots who are citizens being layed off it is highly unlikely you would be granted authorisation to work as a commercial pilot in the USA as a resident of another country.
On saying that.............some ex Ryanair guys i believe went to work for All Nippon Cargo and are based in New York, and.................if you look in Flight International this week Air India are looking for 747-400 pilots to be based in Chicago or NYC, however, you may even need command time on said type.
The only real advice i can give you is get yourself a good immigration lawyer, but it could costs big bucks. Mmm, maybe i should give up flying, probably make more money that way
