Stay in Pakistan.

I don't understand. My best buddy has about 2000TT and close to 1000 multi (500 Navajo time and the rest C-421C). He's of Dutch nationality with a Temp. Green Card, Work Permit and a Social Security #. He can't find a job anywhere. Im guessing because he's not a US Citizen and when people see his resume and see an akward name, their like "forget this, he probably can't hardly talk the language", etc...

But these guys from the same country that flew airplanes into buildings in the US have no problem getting a job. Where I live there are 4 Pakistanis who fly Lear 35s.

Can anybody help here?

To the guy in Pakistan:

Sorry, but this is probably going to be a tough time to come here to fly. It may not be fair, and it may suck, but that is just the state of things right now.

To the Maverick guy:

Exactly how many Pakistanis flew planes into buildings in the US? When did this happen?

Making generalized assumptions without facts helps nobody.

so... i'm just trying to make a point

 

[H8U]

The point here is: American jobs for American pilots!

 

[maverick_fp00]

yea well I know a few foreign pilots that are better pilots than american pilots.... i know i might be contridicting (sp?) my other post, but it's true

 

[H8U]

Its not about who flies better, its about American pilots who are out of work while foreigners try to get jobs. Try to get an airline job in another country......good luck. It has to work both ways.

 

[maverick_fp00]

I wasn't speaking of airline jobs... just a job in general, wether it's a CFI, Baron, Beechjet, whatever

H8u,
You are misinformed. It normally has to do with residency and having the correct certificates not citizanship. There are exceptions but you could work most anywhere if you meet those requirements. You also normally have to speak the language.

 

[Wiggums]

Yeah, your buddy needs to get naturalized. What do you mean he can't get a job, there's plenty of CFI or even 135 companies that would be interested in a guy with that kind of time.

Stay in Pakistan.

Yeah, go try to get that residency and work permit.......

On the other hand, if pilots come here with the intentions of becoming citizens and staying, instead of building up hours and leaving like some kind of "fill-er-up" for their logbooks, then its great.
