Hello, I desperately need an answer for this question. My country (Maldives) does not have many planes ( 3 Airlines. Maldivian, TMA & Air Taxi of which only Maldivian has a Dash Fleet and others float plane which doesnt pay much). Is it possible to fly for an international airliner like Emirates, Air India ..... without earning time in a airline in my country! I heard I cannot without flying in my own country for a specific time. Because their are many pilots without job in the country. Being a pilot means a lot to me.
