I was up at the Grand Canyon recently and I heard that Scenic and Air Vegas (two operators who fly into GCN) hire a lot of foreign pilots. At first, I didn't believe it because I thought it wouldn't be possible. Then, flying around the canyon, it did seem like all the Scenic and Air Vegas radio calls had foreign voices.
Does anyone know if this is true? If it is true, how does it make you feel? It makes me pretty mad. I've been trying to find work as a pilot in other countries for 2 years and no one hires American pilots. So, how is possible that foreign pilots are coming to our country and taking our jobs? Also, how would aviation employers be able to issue work permits? There are so many qualified American pilots out on the streets, I don't see how the US gov would approve this.
