I readily admit that AMF is not a career place for most people. And when people come here and fulfill the commitment they made in terms of time promised for the cost of the training we provide to gain the flight time, I am more than happy to help people move on to wherever they want to go. Be it a regional, corporate, air ambulance or larger iron. What I don't care for is people who come here at 1200 hours and leave after just a couple of months because now they are competitive as a first officer someplace.

For me, it has worked well as a career place. I hadn't intended it to be but circumstances at the time worked different than I had planned.
You, I and everyone knows that the "training contract" that AMF has isn't worth the paper it's written on. If AMF paid a reasonable wage, they wouldn't have that kind of turnover.
