Hey there
for some one with so much experience in the business/financial market i'm very surprised you are even asking the question.
You don't need to read the Times or any particular newspaper to realise that the aviation industry in the US is up the creek without a paddle.
AA in almost bankruptcy....with DAL and UAL pretty on the verge of falling in.
Also for someone who doesn't get offended your answer seems to contradict that.
Also if you are from the UK then i'm quite sure you will have realised what is required from you to stayin the US legally.
If you want to find out exactly what is needed to become an airline pilot in the US by the majors or the commuters then i suggest you talk to the numerous pilots that are on furlough from the various airlines.
