Personal experience with a move to Europe great place to work, but I was surprised how quickly your past professional experience will be worth little unless your related to someone in the company or you have been floating in a small circle of very well connected aviation professionals. Personally had to deal with the everything is better in Europe crowd for years, actually got a job and have not seen any professional growth since I moved across. A lot of smoke and mirrors over here. The plus is generally no commuting, good vacation, O.k. 401 retirement. Small amount of Americans flying over on this side most are married to natives, otherwise it's like getting admitted into the wings club as a lifetime member. lifestyle is good, if you make the jump feel free to send me a PM. After seeing how the other half live looking forward to a furture life back were I am the native, if I get the opportunity(which belive it or not) is still more possible in the United States. Good luck I know it's a huge decision.
