American airline pilot pipeline/cadet programs
Hi everyone,
i just wanted to know does anyone have any information as to if lets say if i am Canadian citizen i can also apply and go through with these programs? Here are some of the requirements i found:
Envoy air:
Commercial Pilot Certification with multi-engine and instrument ratings
Ability to obtain a FAA First Class Medical
Legal right to work in the United States (doesn't specify that you have to LIVE in the US)
Willing and able to work nights, holidays, weekends and overnight trips
Must be able to read, write, fluently speak and understand the English language
For SkyWest they actually state you do have to LIVE in the USA:
To be considered for a pilot position, you must:
Be at least 21 years of age
Hold a Commercial License
Possess a current first-class medical (verified at interview)
Be a U.S. citizen or able to show proof of right to work in the U.S.
Hold an FCC Radio License
English Proficiency Endorsement (EPE)
Have a current passport
Be willing to rescind seniority with current carrier
Be at least instrument current
Many schools are offering this program and one school for the same Skywest program states:
Letter of Recommendation from the Program Advisory Committee (PAC)
FAA Multi-engine Land Commercial Pilot Certificate and an Instrument rating
Certified Flight Instructor Certificate
Current FAA First Class Medical
FCC License
No more than 3 failed checkrides where a notice of disapproval was issued by an FAA designated examiner.
No criminal offenses that would preclude Candadian clearance.
No more than 2 moving violations on your driving record in the past 3 years
No enforcement action on your FAA record

it doesnt state must have US citizenship either.
Sorry for the long post just looking for credibility. Also i know that even if i am a Canadian citizen although i can travel and work in the US without a visa, im still probably considered international to the airline....

While you can cross the border without a visa you'll still need a "green card" to get an aviation job in the the U.S. All the work visas are short term for 1 to 3 year jobs. The "right to work" in the US is a requirement for any job.
