Tattoos and the helicopter industry

As anyone who has them will tell you tattoos are addictive.

I currently have on on my right arm going over to my chest, it starts about halfway up my bicep so it is easily covered if I want to. I'm planning on starting on a half sleeve on my left arm. For those that don't know what that is, a half sleeve starts at the top of the shoulder, ending just above the elbow, completely covering that part of the arm.

I'm also hoping to start training for a commercial license (currently 0 hours), not sure where either the US, Oz or possibly Canada. Can anyone give me any advice on having tattoos in this industry? People's attitudes are slowly changing but there is still prejudice around. Could I go through all the training and then find the tattoos I have will hinder me from getting work.

Any opinions I'll be very interested to hear.
