I'm returning to flying after 8 years with a rusty FAA CPL and 1200hrs. I will be moving to the USA in Jan and will have a green card.
Can anybody advise as to the current state of employment (Regional or Charter)and if they know of any good flight schools in Phoenix Az, indeed any advice would be welcome.I do have Charter and turbojet time.

Thanks - Happy Landings

Hootie,
Try Skywest. Just finished working there after 20 months. Flew the Emb120 for 4mths and the RJ for the rest of the time.

Nobody seems to be mentioning the fractionals.
I just got hired as a BE400 Capt. Week on Week off schedule. We are currently hireing F/Os for the Citation, Beechjet, ANd Challenger. Starting salary for the right seat $25000. You get a type and no pay for training.

Also Comair, ASA any of the other large regionals are scrambling for pilots.

Well Hootie,your threads seem to have filled in a little and leapfrogged over each other.It would be remiss of me not to draw your attention to this source of employment information:
http://www.airapps.com/navigationpage/navigationpage.html

It should be possible to buy just a single months newsletter to give you the actual hiring numbers for each airline.Not everything they print is true but a lot of it is.

If you still are looking try AEPS, they have a fair amount of job postings. They are at WWW.AEPS.COM. (http://WWW.AEPS.COM.) Mesaba is hiring, Chataqua is hiring, American Eagle I think too.

Best of luck>>.
