By sending applications all around the world -> 0.001 - 1%
The only way to be hired in Asia as an expat is to send an application, almost 100% of the time. It concerns experience pilots though.


Even if some job comes up in bush flying or air taxi you will not have a 1000 hours with a type rating any way,i just don't get it .
It very might.
The only problem is that people don't understand the progressive path.

They beleive it is 6 months of Cessna 210 then right to the A380.

This is longer than that, and much more progressive.

It takes 10 to 15 year to make it to the airlines, but during that time you will build an amazing experience, you will have extreme fun (if you are not anytime obsessed with the airlines) and you salary will increase quite a lot after a few year, with the minimum spendings initially.



Today I wouldn't choose any other route (unless I am promised a nice job in a nice airline directly) as an oil shortage is waiting to happen, wouldn't want to be stucked with a mountain a debt due to an expensive initial training.
