Fatbus a lot of American pilots are stuck here. As been mentioned before a lot of the Americans have issues that prevent them from going home, much to their dismay.
DUIs, Court Orders, No College Degrees, Lack of Child payments but the big one being talent will keep some Americans in the sand. The vast majority of Americans are looking to leave though as they should be looking. AA has over 200 applications from EK pilots. Some EK pilots have even left for Jet Blue and Spirit and I'm sure everyone has seen the Virgin thread.
The 92 hours a month is the deal breaker for most. This will kill most of us and is unstainable. Even the FOs are starting to fly that much as so many pilots are leaving Emirates.
