pbi,

Yes, there are many outfits here in the USA: Southern, ATI, Dynamic Air Int'l (don't let a little bankruptcy scare ya !), National, USA Jet, ABX, and some I've failed to remember. Many of them don't generate much news.

To address the OP's question, while most carriers here will hire a green card holder (even some airlines you'd actually want to work for), I just don't see carriers with larger airplanes soliciting expats. The regionals are taking Aussies under that special visa deal but that's an unusual arrangement...just a steppingstone for Aussies the same way it's a steppingstone for US citizens...a niche phenomenon.

This country has pilots running out its ears but if expats can find an avenue into the game here...come on in. Welcome to the game.
