Wouldn't you be better looking at the aircraft manufacturers? Not sure what your role entails but I'm not sure there is a market for restoring smashed aircraft....but I could be wrong.

Try BAe Systems.
They hire for Saudi, I'll be going out to KSA with them in a couple of weeks.

Hello

I have no licenses, just 20 years experience in the industry, including heavy structures, composites, fast jet and wide bodied. I am currently a mechanical/structures foreman in Canada working on the P3 aircraft carrying out third line maint and a structural life extension programme including wing replacement.

I would love to work anywhere in the middle East that would be fine for my family.

Why do you want to work here so bad?

Fair bit of helicopter maintenance around the middle east if you're into that. Decent money and usually on a rotation basis so get to go home a lot.

Its a place I have had many friends work at and they all come back with good reviews on the whole. Also I see it as a new challenge. The middle East looks a wonderful part of the world, and to have an oportunity to work there would be wonderful.

Is there still work available as I have been told that it has slowed down.
