I am a late career changer so I don't have many years left where I can fly for an airline. Basically wanting to retire early and fly for a living. I will be 58 next month and I make a good wage at my current employer of 24 years. I want to retire and draw my pension and fly but still need money for the house payment. Retiring and hoping I make enough money instructing is more than a little risky in Washington state with all our rain. That is why I am looking at Ameriflight for the hopefully consistent work and cash flow.

Got any suggestions based on my situation?
There is no way you will enjoy AMF as a 60 year old line pilot. It is a company built for young pilots making a young pilot wage. Especially as an FO... By all means give it a shot but I don't think you know what you're getting yourself into.
