You were belittling Ameriflight's single pilot experience in earlier posts so I simply stated that I've also had an FO half the time so I've been getting experience with both. It's a mixture depending on what run you have.
AMF doesn't pay per diem. You are given TDY pay if you are gone from base more than a certain amount. The second I start my duty no matter where I'm at, I get per diem. That TDY is lower than industry standard by a long shot, so I don't see how the company is "taking care" of you. Pilots work almost max hour duty days every single day with no per diem.
