Joachim.... yea well people like you tick me off as well. Take your PCness and shove it.

Trying going to AUS and getting a flying job... or NZ...... crazy.

Ok...
All the politically correctiveness aside... I'm a Canadian and I work for a US airline. It is possible... but obviously you have to go through all the legal avenues which is tough (and it should be). On the flip-side, Canadian carriers hire Americans and other citizens as well, who also have to go through all the legal avenues for work permits, etc. (also not easy). I cannot comment on other countries because I have no first-hand experience. |

Wow! Lets remember what America is all about. It ****es me off to read Dumb @#ss comments like this. Most pilots that come to America aren't here for the jobs. Jobs outside the states are usually better.

Exactly...... well said Rick. Personally I think fair is fair. If you want to fly for a US flagged carrier.... get citizenship.
So, what do you think about those that have dual citizenship? Is it fair then? And what if they have a ‘foreign’ accent as well? Would that make a difference? Would you consider them welcome, or unwelcome? Just say that you bump into one at an airport, and get into a conversation, and you then realize that they speak with a ‘foreign’ accent, how would you identify if they are a US citizen, or not? Would you ask them directly, assume they are here on a work visa or permit, or think nothing of it? |
We're getting pretty deep here now...and when you're this deep, nothing smells good.

You can not just show up here and apply for citizenship because you want to. You have to be entitled under the laws to qualify for it. No us airline will sponsors pilots. Any who tells you that they are flying with pilots at major airlines that are foreigners are lying. People get hire at airlines here because they either get married to an American, apply for asylum, have parents who are US citizens, and their a few other ways, but these are the most common. If you anyone is upset about flying with foreign born pilot need to complain to your legislator. These are the laws and if you don’t like them then you can always leave and immigrate to another county.

So it's fair that I can't fly for Air Canada, but a Canadian can come down and fly for my airline? America must be about bending over and taking one in the rear, because it sure seems like we do it a lot.
