If that is what you are interested in I can get you some contact info for over there. They also have a program there with the chineese that has lower minimums. Don't know the detail on the pay or benefits for that though.

A better bet would be to get on as a ground school instructor at an airline. The guy who did my last recurrent only had a private but had studied his ass off to learn the airplane. I think you might get burnt out less with this option and it might even be able to lead to a sim instructor position.

Getting a masters at teaching at a university or flight instructing at a university may even be a good option. If you are still at UND (or even recently graduated) go talk to your academic advisor. He will be able to offer you the most help.
That would be great if you could get me the information on the place in phoenix. I am instructing now at an FBO, so I could continue instructing there until I meet whatever their minimums are.
