The short answer is no. AJX pilots are employed by a contract agency and not by ANA itself. Yes, we've done their training courses and have the same qualifications as the mainline pilots but there would be a host of challenges to overcome, not least the alien registration bureaucracy versus right to live and work in Japan, ANA union, residency etc etc. It would all be far too difficult for the Japanese and, speaking for myself, I wouldn't bother. Working in Japan is one thing but living AND working there would be quite another
