Good Day all,
I'm a FO currently working in the ME with almost 3000h 777/787 time. I also have 2500h 737 from a previous company. TT just about 6000h.
I am as many are looking at the EB2 Pilot Visa Program for the US.
Firstly my 777/787 rating has been transferred to my EASA license with the national reg restriction of the country I currently fly in. I know the process to unrestrict it with EASA.
I am aware that the FAA do not recognise the type rating outright but I can go through a process to get an FAA ATP with the rating endorsed? Is this true and if so where do I start?
Secondly has anyone got experience of the visa process and actual requirements. I've spoken to some people and some firms and I've heard a few different things.
Thirdly. With an FAA ATP with 777/787 endorsed and hours as laid out above what are the job options available or feasible in the US?
The whole thing seems a bit overwhelming so any tips or hints are much appreciated!
