I have recently passed the FAA ATP (A) test. So now I'm an airline pilot with MEI, CFII but with low time.
I'm a Former French army helicopter pilot with 3200 turbine time on Super Puma.
I'm living in France, without a type rating, only 300 hours on fixed-wing, and like many looking for a job.
Do you know some companies hiring low time pilot? Not in the USA cause I can't work over there.
I'm trying to find a job as instructor in Europe but it's really slow now.
I don't want to change from FAA to JAA for the moment cause it's REALLY expensive.
I'm waiting for any advice or just sharing some thoughts with you guys all around the world.


Always remember: there is no good pilot, only pilot still alive.:oh:

Hi,

quite a bit sceptical...with an FAA licence in Europe, the only pilot job you could look toward are mainly in the bizness community...and usually those "operators" or owners are looking for people with high experience..so frankly speaking , in such economical downturn..I would recommend you to spent this time in learning toward the JAA one..

Bon courage
