I have no doubt the airline simulated atmosphere Aerosim Flight Academy provides is the reason why I was successful during my airline interview, and have been successful during 121 training. I have seen first-hand the many similarities in how Aerosim’s structured training is similar to the airlines.” − Terrance O. Smith, First Officer (SureJet Airlines)
I guess we all know his date of hire.

A-320 captains in China were getting $16K/month...In the last week I have seen these same jobs advertised at $18K and $20K/month.
E-145 Captains AND FOs wanted overseas.
E-145 and -190 captains at $15K/month, then upgrade to A-320 in one year.
A-320 captains, at the payrates above, then upgrade to the A-330 in one year.
Lots of jobs in the Middle East, India, Vietnam, Korea, Japan.

Good luck!

I don't want to advertise for another website but This is one which has pretty much all the jobs, it is free to use & gives a good view of the world market, the requirements & trend.

Anyone who is flying a 777, 737 or 320 either FO or CA, should be well set here in USA & doesn't really need to look outside except if their airline is shaky, under BK or some reason like that.....

Those guys flying for regionals, specially the ones which can fold & BK any minute, really should a hard look at what they want to do if their company folds.

CRJ200 CA jobs, looks like a chinese airline is pretty desperate & few Indian airlines are REALLLLLLY desperate ATR72 & Q400 captains, these all seems like a decent gig for any CA flying for any regional which has a questionable future. They are a lot better than staring at Year 1 FO at another regional....

In ASIA, the desperation in the arilines recruiting dept's has been on the rise & is going to increase in the next 12-24 months as lot of the expat's (foriegn Pilots) flying there are in the 63-65 yrs age bracket and as a result, the T&C's or at least the pay, seem to be getting better.....

I have said this time & again, there is & there will be NO SHORTAGE for a fresh CPL but a experienced CA is in great demand, if not in USA, then at least other parts of the world....

The term "Pilot shortage" should be referred to & ineterpretted as "EXPERIENCED CAPTAIN SHORTAGE..."

Amazing. I doubt if it will gain any traction, particularly with the families of the Colgan Air mishap victims being ready to testify against further relaxation.

Note the spin in the title: "Improve Pilot Qualification", when the truth is "Relax Pilot Qualification".

I was told that there are pilot factories being set up in china to produce 8000 new commercial pilots a year. It could be a myth but I am expecting that to happen eventually.

Countries like China and India have the potential to flood the market with cheap pilots. They could work on contract with major airlines all over the world and then take their low wages back home where they live like kings.

If you want to see the future just look to Europe and the rest of the world. Airline sponsored cadet programs.
