Holiday working visa Canada, it's not actually called that anymore. Be from a commonwealth country, under 35, 1 year work visa no restrictions easily extended for a second year. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Back in the day when I had 100 hrs I tried to go to Aussie land...was told to bugger off! No FAA IFR ticket needed to work South of the Border. Not sure how easy it is these days to write the FAA conversion exam as a result of Covid? But you will need 25 hrs. of night cross country for Part 135 work. Once you have your FAA Rotary Cert in hand. Getting a Work Visa is another story all together. Unless you have dual citizenship of course. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In the first place, this accident happened in the US and the previous poster was referring to instructors in Canada. Secondly, and with much respect for the crew that suffered this terrible ending. it would not have mattered if the instructor had 10K hours or the ink was still wet on his license, like yours. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
