Canadian citizens and visa crew member.
Hi guys,
If you have to enter U.S. as a crew member (pilot) of a non Canadian registered aircraft from outside Canada, do you need a Crew Member Visa even if you are a Canadian passport holder?
Thanks, fly safe

No, you do not. Valid (Canadian) passport with the standard US entry form which you can get before arrival from the purser or on arrival in immigration. Takes 2 minutes to complete and should be good for years with stamps for about 40 entries.

Maybe it's because those countries get it??? Why you would need a visa to enter a country while you are working and being paid by a foreign entity that is legally entitled to do business in that destination country is a mystery to me. If you're entering the country to go to work for an employer in that country, that's a different thing entirely. But what would I know?

Let me rephrase Mustang06 question to clear my own doubts:
If you have to enter or overfly the U.S. as a crew member (pilot) of a Canadian or non Canadian registered aircraft from Canada holding a european passport, do you need a Crew Member Visa? Thank you in advance.
