How to find aircraft work in asia?

I'm trying to find work in Thailand or surrounding countries, but only teaching jobs are really available. I'm a aircraft (structures) Tech/mech by trade. I've applied through various agencies to no avail! does anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks


Okay here is the fact about working in Asia. First most if not all shops, MRO, repair stations or FBOs will require you to have an Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) or CAA license to work. However some repair stations can hire you, but its not what you know, but who you know.

In Asia you really have to be introduced to someone by someone they know and trust. You may want to look you HEACO in Hong Kong they are a large repair station that hires non-certificated/licensed tech’s to work under the repair station certificate. I would recommend looking up their web site and forget about using a firm to find you a job they are a rip off.

Yes there are lots of jobs in Asia, but not lots of money of wages.

my man if I think you're an S/M guy there is always work for you in Asia to start with try Middle East.

If you're really a Sheetmetal guy then any MRO in Asia will get you at this instant.

Give your credentials and we'll see.

Agencies make their money from applicants fees. Go direct to the airlines websites and check their career section. Try India and China. They seem to be the ones with greatest demand.

Come to India. There is a lot of work available for aircraft people. We have one new airline coming up every six months.
