Pilot Job Outsourced to U.S.

Apparently someone is hiring pilots --- overseas airlines.

Foreign carriers are outsourcing flying jobs to U.S. pilots:  China, India, and the Emirates have long been options.  Emerging options include:  Bolivia, Qatr, and Vietnam.

Compensation packages include salary, health care, housing alloance, retirement plans, and vacation.  Many of the packages are more than what pilots have been making here at home.

In other parts of the world flight crews are still treated with respect.
