Default Ameriflight bought Wiggins Airways

Well the day has come that Ameriflight bought out Wiggins Airways. Good luck to those pilots. Ameriflight has a high turn over rate by 50%, no per Diem pay-unless you float or you fly a FedEx caravan, no loading pay, no overnight away pay, and top off their pay scale at 12 years. They encourage pilots to move on.

Hopefully Wiggins' pilots can find better pastures before Ameriflight Amertizes Wiggins.

I feel bad for Wiggins pilots as well because I know pilots from both operations. Ameriflight was based in socal until recently and never viewed as a good company to work for as well as having a checkered past with the FAA.
