Hi!

If U want to work in the US, you need a green card and FAA license. If a company really, really wants to hire a Euro pilot, with no green card, and no FAA license, and they know all the right people....it still won't help. no job for that guy.

On the other hand, if a certain Euro company wants to hire an American with no right-to-work/EU citizenship, and no JAA license, they CAN get them a work permit and have their license converted to JAA.

So, it is POSSIBLE for an American to get a Euro job, and there is 0% chance a Euro guy will get a US job.

If someone is legally entitled to a US job (green card/citizenship and FAA license), it should not (and does not) matter where they were born, what their citizenship is, or what is their first language.
