What is the FO salary like? Do I just need the CPL or does AMF require their FO's to have a certain amount of TT?
Thanks
First off, we only have 8 employee FOs in the entire company. Those are for the E120s. Everything else is captain which requires the part 135 mins (1200TT, etc.) So we aren't in a big hiring push for the FO spots.
There is no official minimum TT for the FO position but we are looking for folks who can handle being a single pilot captain when they get to 1200 hours. We also would prefer someone who has that 1200 hours around the time they have completed their one year training contract for the E120. So optimally we would like to see around 800 TT, though we have hired folks with less in the past.
As for the salary, E120 FOs currently start just under $24,000 yr.
