Old thread, but here is my $.02... Worked as a King Air FO for CJ systems and was there when Air Methods bought us out. Based at KJVY.
Air Methods is union, and contract states 1day on for one day off, and the individual based make whatever schedule they want. Ours was 7on/7off.
Pay starts at $50k for Capt and around $40k for FO. Literally you get 75% of a captains pay.
I have nothing bad to say about the company. Excellent people from the top down. Would have stayed had they not gone single pilot at that base.
