The USA is very generous with permitting foreign work and make the process relatively easy, compared to other countries.
I know from experience.
Unless you have a valid work permit for the USA you will never be able to fly here. Unlike Africa/middle east/asia where you can be an expat and land a tax free flying job. Your post was wrong. Yes there are visa/work permits given out for farming jobs/hotel industry because americans are not willing to do the jobs. NAFTA allows professionals to travel more freely accross the CDN and Mexican border but still have to apply with the INS.
Airline pilots are not part of NAFTA because you do not need a university degree to work as a pilot. Therefore it doesn't meet the requirements of a professional job.
