Hello,
I am a 17 year old who is very interested in becoming a pilot, After a lot of research I think Egnatia in Greece is a good option as many people regard it as a top flight school and they are approved by a few airlines outside EU. My initial plan was to permanently settle into the EU but then i found out that only EU citizens could get a job in European airlines. I did have a meeting with the addmissions officer in Egnatia and did mention I live in the Middle East and he recomended Qatar Airways but after reading the other threads about Qatar Airways I don't think that's a good choice any more. What options do I have in terms of getting a job after flight school, companies like Emirates, Etihad and Air Arabia only hire experienced pilots and the respective academics are very expensive if you can even get in. What options do i have? I haven't registered to any school and I am just trying to gather as much information as I possibly can. While some airlines outside EU accept easa licence most require the respected authority's license and thats not something I would be willing to do as i would have to redo all 14 exams again. Any advice or things that i am doing that are horribly wrong?
