USA employment

hi folkes,
anyone got a heads up on the current employment situation in the states for newly qualified pilots?

Do you have the right to live and work in the States? And will you have an FAA or JAA licence?

Cheers

Quiet over in the states at the moment I'm afraid. Lots of unemployed CFIs hanging around looking for work. There are opening for more experienced pilots I'm sure but otherwise its pretty tough to get that start. Hopefully someone else comes on here with better news for you. Keep trying though, something will come up eventually!!

...and unfortunately even the experienced guys have a hard time. I have friends ranging from "finishing their instruction career" with 1,300 hrs to the highly experienced S-76 drivers looking for work - no luck
