It's a bit of a "closed market" to non Filipinos especially for low timers think it's no problem to rent aircraft though..the P.I. CAA is based in part on the FAA (USA) system..

Why are you planning to live here dc3? A lot of my colleagues are leaving for US, NZ and Canada. These guys have at least 2k jet time. Gen-Av is pretty much the same world wide. You'd have to shine shoes and spend a lot on booze money to get a flight.
