I am currently a B-737NG Captain in the US with over 1100 hours in the left seat of the NG and with over 11,000 hours total time. With the death spiral the airlines are currently in and with no end in sight I am considering contract flying and have some questions.
I am 39, single, no kids. I sold my house last year so I don't even have a mortgage to worry about. So at this point I am not attached to anything and can go anywhere. I would prefer to do a non-commuting contract and live in base.
I can see by the contractor's websites that there are NG captain positions in China, Vietnam, Japan, and South Korea. If anybody has worked and lived in these countries I would like to hear your opinions on them. If you had to do over again would you take your current contract job? How is the flying? Are the planes well maintained? Living conditions? etc etc etc ..
Thanks
