The next few years are going to be very interesting for pilots in the international market, many opportunities available right now and many more to come but as folks have expressed already it is not going to be a "free for all" guys with time on type on midsize A/C's current and qualified or guys that have the magic 1,000 wide body PIC will be the ones writing their own tickets. Now, there aren't that many guys out there to meet this demand so opportunities will open up in the future but for the time being they are sticking to their guns in terms of their minimum requirements.
