I agree with "cropduster", I used to work in the US in Tennesse and Arkansas, even did some crop dusting and its really great to fly and work there and the FAA people are very helpful and friendly at least they were to me.
The aviation world in Europe is becoming way to regulative and difficult and I feel real sorry for the newcomers into the business right now, with JAR ATPL training required for PPL´s if they want to move on. In the States you´re not even allowed to take ATP theory until an FAA inspector has approved you and you have the required hrs (1200 hrs for helo´s I think).
But I actually have a really good job flying Bell 222´s on scheduled route flying in Greenland. So its possible to have interesting and fun jobs in Europe (Greenland is Danish territory) with pretty unrestrictive flying in isolated areas like Grl. I work 30 days on / 30 off schedule so I able to do some flight instructing and charter work where I live in Reykjavik Iceland.
