Ameriflight contract

[flyingid]

Wondering if anyone knows if Ameriflight has a training contract? Thanks

6 months for the 99, 1 year for the 1900/Metro. It is prorated, from what I was told.

This info is a year old, someone may have more info-

6 months for the 99 and 1 year for the Metro is still the policy.

"Equipment commitment" is the company parlance for the training agreements. I only had to sign them for the 1900 and Metro. The BE99 is not subject to a signed agreement to the best of my knowledge.

Pistons

Is there a contract with the pistons? Or only with the turbines?

No training contracts for pistons.

Years ago when I started at AMF I was required to sign a 6 month commitment. I don't think that has changed any.

No contract for the pistons, however you make a verbal agreement to stay with the company for a year. If you leave prior to a year, they won't give you a letter of reference.

Why would anyone leave Ameriflight, assuming they got in the door, without getting to the turbine equipment???

Oh, that's right, the regionals are hiring...

AMF Training Contract

BE99 is 6 month commitment (as previously mentioned) and now is a written contract.

Posted mins for 99 are 1800 total, 350 AMEL PIC, and 50 turbine (which you can get during training.)

Total time for both the 1900 and metro is 2500. The 1900 lists 750 AMEL PIC and 500 turboprop and the metro is 1000 AMEL PIC and 750 turbine.

FO is six month, capt is one year.

The FOs are usually BUR or OAK 99 or metro pilots who are dual qualified. The captains are all VERY senior. Don't plan on hiring in directly to either.
