Can pilot job search expenses be deducted?

Many expenses are incurred when a pilot searches for a new airline job. Most of these job searching expenses can be written off when the job being sought is in the same occupation as the previous job. The determination of whether or not the previous job is in the same occupation as the job being sought is a bit of a gray area.
