Hi all,
Thanks for reading my mssg with regards to AA hiring.
I am completely new to the industry in the US and came across this forum.
My situation is as follows: currently in the UK and wife can get relocation to Miami which we are considering (including green card for the family)
I currently work for a legacy (13 years) and have about 10.000 jet hours with currently a 777 rating. Time to wide body-command was not too far away but due to C19 is now few years away again (3-5 at least).
Assuming I have changed my European license to an FAA one, my questions are:
- Would AA hire directly onto a widebody, or would I have to do a Typerating again and start on something else?
- How much influence does a new joiner have wrt domicile/base? Miami being the preferred one in my case
- What would be my total gross salary for say the first few years?
(I came across a salary calculator but not sure I am doing that right and if there is other variable income to consider)
It has always been something we wanted to do (move to the US) but I don’t want to commute anymore or move every 2years because of the kids.
Many thanks for taking the time to reply. Feel free to write me a PM if this is not in line with the thread of this Forum.
