Thx!
We routinely hire expat pilots at UPS. We've recently hired several American pilots from Mideast carriers. While on NRT layovers (we stay at a big airline hotel, mostly Delta) the Mideast carrier guys routinely try to buy me drinks in the sports bar while picking my brain about UPS. Any pilot with heavy jet international time fits into our system. We hire a lot of non-heavy types too.
