I suppose a safety record with no crashes since June 30, 2015 is what one should strive for.
Look at the Phoenix crash, 2012. The pilot was supposed to maintain currency in two different types of aircraft, a practice Amrieflight continues until this day. There is a reason, written in blood why 121 carriers are not allowed to do this.
Look at wikipedia. This is not worth the risk. Ever wonder what your new bride will look like dressed in black?
Gotta love it when a troll creates a new profile just to jump in and slam a company, mostly with unsubstantiated allegations.
Every airplane we fly single pilot is certified by the FAA to be flown that way. The only airplane we have that was designed exclusively to be flown two pilot is the E120. And guess what? That is how we fly it. Always.
Why would we WANT someone to fail a check ride? We are short pilots. We have given pilots several weeks of line training in order to try to get them where they can pass a check ride and be safe, efficient pilots. Have we washed a few out even after that? Yes. And trust me, they were never going to be safe in the aircraft.
As for currency in multiple aircraft, I have been current in two aircraft for about half of my flying career, even a few years while in the Air Force. All were aircraft that either require a type rating or WOULD require one if they were civilian planes.

That is such an ignorant statement.
Yeah, we make it our mission to ruin people's PRIA record. That way they will have to stay with us. <smh>
