Perhaps this thread is better suited in the flight schools section, but I have some questions about foreign carriers as well.
I'm 22, and have my PPL. Going back to university this fall (UND) and probably will be there for 2 years finishing up. Maybe 3 since I would very much like to double major in something within the engineering realm.
I'm a dual Canadian/US citizen, and just recently found out my parents recovered a Canadian passport they got for me when I was just a few months old. I'm thankful I don't have to file all new paperwork to prove my citizenship. I had been under the impression that all of my parents records of my Canadian citizenship had been lost.
But here's the kicker. My Dad, at the time of my birth, was/still is a dual Canadian/Dutch citizen. Finding my Canadian passport has given me some motivation for looking into obtaining Dutch citizenship for myself.
My thinking is that if I can pull off EU citizenship (Dutch) finding a flying job overseas after school might be the way to go. Even if just for a few years to build up time and experience, and move back.
Any insight from the members here? Is there much of a market in Europe for pilots right now? I am aware of the differences in certifications, although I have a bit of reading to do on how exactly to transfer those over to a new country.
Edit: If it matters, I've been with Allegiant for a little over a year as an out-station agent, and hope to continue with them while at school. So a little experience at least, which I'm hoping will help out later.
