The USA is having big problems as well and would be affected by any problems the EU
I have lots of family in Ireland as well, and I am aware of the problems the EU is facing. The aviation industry is turbulent in both markets, and everyone is waiting for the pilot shortage which has been promised since the Wright brothers, however I'm simply trying to think outside the box, and use the options I have available to me. I could certainly go the commercial, CFI, US regional route many of my friends are going, I was simply looking for something different. I will give a closer look at Australia as it seems there are plenty of topics here on the forum here.
