NAI is a stepping stone for many European pilots who do just that - get their time, and bolt off to the sandbox or Asia where the pay is more up to par.
That's just it, you don't have to risk posing with a newspaper on Al Jazeera or dining on goat by moving to sandbox city. Does 110K on a Dreamliner sound better than 70K flying 80 legs a month for C&P regional? The universe is equally indifferent to gnashing of teeth and BB browbeating. If NAI can staff their expansion & manage to pay for it by generating sufficient traffic at break-even or better pricing, they survive to earn another day. The flag of convenience dog didn't hunt. As far as legal challenges go, seems imperative to hold on to whatever air freedom protections remain effective.
