FYI
Qatar Airways is a JAA compliant airline. Atleast you need to know how to read a Metar and Taf to work here.
QA does not need US pilots as you put it, the requirement is for pilots. The Failure rate is lower in Asian or European interviews due to the fact they are more familiar with the JAA system.
At present only 3 out of the near 90 destinations QA operates are in the US. Our pilots need to know much more than just the FAA system.

there is a whole world out there mate, and it's not called America.
