Saw this under the Home Based 1900 posting.......any idea how ESCS works? What is integrator?

May fly integrator or ESCS (charter) flights. When flying ESCS, will be required to assist in load / offload of cargo.

My guess is scheduled freight feeder runs for UPS, FedEx, DHL. Being home based, they will use you wherever needed for your 2 weeks on. Scheduled runs the pilots do not load/unload aircraft. Charter is different, so pilots do load/unload.

generally+1 for all
But pilot load/unload does involve fairly substantial extra pay.
For some it's s no go, for others a $$$ evil.
Both a very different lifestyles, with different typical patterns of work.

Obviously the types that require two pilots...!

Much of the ESCS is in the Metro and also is crewed with two pilots.

Charter flights are regularly flown in the SA227, E120 and SF340. Obviously the SAAB and Brasilia require two crew. The Metro CAN be operated single pilot but we prefer to use two crew so they are able to go up to 10 hours of flight time under 135.267.

We normally don't use Beech aircraft (99 or 1900) on charter operations.

How quick do people at AMF jump over to major? I’ve been thinking about going this route instead of a regional. Also how is the QOL recently?
