I have experience in all operations including low cost, cargo and VIP. I have flown over all continents except Antarctica. I have conducted polar operations. The only thing I don't have is PIC time. I only have about 200 hours. With a non-immigrant visa, I hope I can get into one of the majors. But if this does not happen, I have a very high probability of finding a job in one of the regional airlines , the information you have provided. I started emailing airlines. Kalitta replied that a green card or The US passport is a must. Thank you for your suggested services, information and advices. Stay Safe
I am in much the same situation - also plenty of experience, but not in the left seat. I am also about to obtain the green card and evaluating the options. At the moment I figured that the chances of making one of the majors are not none, but are also not great. What adds to my "problem" is that I have not flown for 1.5 years now - and it will probably be 2 by the time I will be able to apply... Anyone has any info on how airlines go about that - or the lack of recency? I am current and FAA type rated, just not really recent...
