Am I eligible to apply for an E3 visa based on my Aussie passport, and if so, what airlines would be interested?
I hold a 3year Bsc degree also.
I'm also assuming I would need to obtain an FAA licence beforehand? Is this process straightforward?

Many thanks
Read the thread US regional headhunting, all your answers are there.

The short answer yes you can work in the US, but only regionals will look at you, no you don't need your FAA license the regional will swap it over for you as part of your type rating.
