Reqs
Hey guys,
Is it a requirement to have CFI to get hired by ameriflight? Thinking of sending my resume in for PA-31 upgrade program. Any additional info for reqs to be more competitive? Are there BE-99's, metros operating out of BUR?
Thanks

BUR has 99s, metros and BE1900s.
To be competitive? Meet 135 requirements and be instrument current.
I'm not sure on the PA31 program if there are a certain number of openings or not. Best bet on that one is to call the recruiting department. They are actually at a different office than the headquarters right now and I don't have their number handy. Call 877-991-0940 and ask for Recruiting. They can give you the correct number.

The only requirement for a CFI is if you are looking to get hired into the training department with less than part 135 minimums. For the PA31 Upgrade Program or line Part 135 captain you don't need a CFI.
BUR has 99s, metros and BE1900s.

Ameriflight is expanding and is hiring now. A class of 20 started indoc this month for PA31, BE99, B1900, EMB120 with plans for classes the next few months. Most new pilots start in the PA31 Chieftain and the company wants to dual qualify them in the BE99s after working for a few months and learning the AMF way. $34K to start with $1000 bonus within a year upon completing check rides and remaining with the company.

What's the deal with the HSV run? I see a 1900 out there most of the time. I'm getting ready to get back in aviation after a 5 year 91K furlough and not sure how long it will last before I hate it again.

We also have a PA31 Upgrade program. This does have a minimum 900 hours. It is a paid position flying right seat in a PA31 with the idea that we will get you to part 135 minimums (1200TT, etc) as quickly as possible and then you qualify as captain in our PA31 aircraft. All of the info for both of these is at www.ameriflight.com and then follow the "Careers" link to "Pilot Opportunities."
But primarily we are looking of Captains. Even both of these SIC positions are with the intent that we can get you into the left seat of one of our aircraft. We aren't looking for permanent SICs, even in the E120s. Which is why the pay scale for the 120 FO is capped after only 3 years.

It's a metro (or was when left a few months back), based in MQY. Does MQY-SDF-HSV-MQY at night, 5 nights a week.
