What to do in this bad market?
 
Okay here's my story.

FAA CPL (SE, ME, IR), CFI, CFII, MEI
JAA CPL (SE, ME, IR), FI

1400TT
100twin

I'm right now making a living flight instructing in the US. Swedish citizen and no green card so I can't apply for regionals here. It feels like the only airline to apply for is Ryan Air.... What would you guys do? I feel done instructing.

You could try what the 250 hour guys try and go to Africa. The difference is you will get a job with those totals.

Airlines? Do you have any weblinks? I would definitely be able to relocate wherever.

Susi Air in Indonesia maybe? What about Golden Air back in Sweden they were hiring some time ago? Check Flygtorget.se

I agree on Susi if you want to try something else. It will be single engine but turboprop.

If not, and if you can stay in your current position I strongly advice you to do so. In todays market your experience will not get you far :(

No time on type - Not even a reply from HR

Time on type, connections inside the company, ready to relocate, ready to accept a short term contract etc... - Reply from HR

:ugh:

If you stay and have patient I think it can pay of in the long run. Just don't stop flying :ok:

Yep what ever you do don't stop flying, keep your logbook ticking away, every hour is important.
