Come on, not even an interview?? I'm just suprised that with all the hiring going on at the regionals AMF is able to pass on a guy like that.
Dude I don't disagree with you. Those are excellent qualifications, and obviously excellent skills to fly SPIFR freight. I am just saying that the multi experience is maybe low enough to worry about him passing training. Just to pass sims you need to be really on your game. 1 week of sims and if you don't pass that, you are more than likely done. After that you get about 5 flights in the airplane and a check (sometimes longer if needed). AMF is not in the business of teaching applicants anything other than AMF company stuff. I was a training captain and whenever I saw somebody without the fundamentals down, it was a sign that it wasn't going to go well.
