Agreed! I'm with you pal. My post wasn't meant to be critical of your post.

That won't be happening for one reason, american regional pilots are among the lowest paid in the world. The chinese simply make more money staying in their own country, with their families, living in their culture. Theres no incentive for an airline pilot to move to the united states for $1600 a month. Show me an airline pilot who has as low a standard of living as an american regional pilot...I dare you.

Also, see the documentary on Russian pilots, pretty sure someone posted a link somewhere on this site, warning though, it's extremely depressing.

Awesome and funny video,,, ... great piloting skills...

China: About 8 yrs ago, they paid max of about $12K/mo for small airbus capt. Now they pay max $20K. They also paid max of about $8K for ERJ capt. Now they pay max $18.5/mo for -190 capt and $15.5/mo for -145 capt.

Back then you had to move to China. Now they have a huge variety of commuting schedules. And, in the last few years, two Chinese airlines have started US basing for some capt positions.

The Chinese are now building 84 large airports. They are starting multiple new airlines per year. Their airlines are ordering THOUSANDS of new aircraft. They will not be exporting pilots anytime soon...probably not for 20+ years.
