Hey SoCal,

I had suspected that much.
Was just looking for another legal way to get to work there.

Had heard that it is actually possible on an H1B visa. However the insurance cost for the aircraft goes way up with a foreign instructor on board and that is the major reason why all the flight schools flight schools avoid us.

Wish I could get a legal opinion about this. ( I am cheap labor you know- will fly for food.)


@- zondaracer,

I wish it was that easy. My country is not eligible for the green card lottery and sadly I broke up with my American girlfriend.


Is there a "Marry-an-American web service"??? That will make things so much easier.


For all those US citizens looking for jobs PM me. I havent got much, but I know my school was looking for CFIs when I left and they always are. So if I cant get that job for myself, might as well pass on that info to you.


Then again,

If anybody else did it any other way, (without an F1 visa to begin with) let us know. Cause I am getting pretty desperate to get back up in the air now and any sort of advise is appreciated.

Thanks.
