If you want to be an aviator, you've got to get out there and make it happen. It will not happen for you unless you chase it.
You will never get a job lined up without leaving a city.
I believe last year the stats where about an 80% success rate of guys getting jobs.
Pack your ****, kiss your old life goodbye and see where it takes you. I went north thinking I'd be up there for a season or two. I was still in the tropics 6 years later and loving it.
