Ok to all concerning ASG Jet and Gulfstream
You cannot get into Gulfstream without a green card now. Also a new law is out that does not allow anyone that is not American to train on any aircraft while on an M1 Visa if it is over 12,500 pounds.
I spoke with Gulfstream and I am Canadian and they said no, not without the right to live and work. They were very rigid and not willing to discuss the matter. However I spoke with and have seen the EAGLE AVIATION operation in Tamiami and they look pretty good. They are honest. Alpine Air is another one that looks worthwhile.
Good luck
Send any info on the above if you have it as I am looking for one of these programs.
How do airlines look at this time?

About ASG
Hello !
ASG have posted an advertising on " AVcrew " for looking for F/O on Jet. No need to complete the complete training with them as it seems ...
Have someone received an answer from them , yet ?
it would be interesting to know if they really need F/O or only people to train into entire program to make money...
A bientôt !

about ASG....
After reading their marvellous proposal in their glorious website I said to myself.. man, this is a bargain! And I started writing them.
I couldn't believe what I was told in their answers...something about 10000$ to give him in advance before even having the chances to go to “his” US training facility. Of course I would of got my money back if I at the end I wasn't satisfied... apart from some hundred dollars that Mr. Villinga would use for paperworks and the visa (pathetic bull****).
He didn't want to tell me an email or a phone number of this training facility beside this : "Just for your information we receive between 400 and 600 applications a month and if all pilots ask questions to me and ask them again to the people in St.Louis they just keep us occupied." ---oh poor people!---
Sorry for being straightforward but the fact that he won't let me talk directly to the facility raises red flags. My guess could be that he didn't want me to talk directly to the facility because I could find out that there is no need for his services. It sounds like a scam where someone agrees to provide you with "secret inside information", but later you find out the information is publically available at no cost.
And 10000$ in advance....

I agree
I agree with what was mentioned above.
Although, I didn't like the answers and explanations I received through their emails.
I'd rather invest my money by playing the lottery or slot machines.

It's your money and you can do with it what you want. Don't ever tell anybody that you haven't been warned.
If I was looking for a place and this was the responce it had generated, I would at least do some more research on the subject.
Tips. Talk to former students, ask about a money back garantee, ask serious questions about the Visa program he opts for. And make sure you can check his claim to fame. (call the INS).
Also find out how many of his students actually got a job and how much he did to help them get that job.
I was'nt that smart and almost ended-up as one of his victims.
Be warned
