Once you become an Ameriflight pilot, you may choose to enter the Allegiant program. Allegiant will then actively mentor you. You will be encouraged to participate in Allegiant-sponsored functions such as meet-and-greets with the regional chief pilots, ground school sessions, simulator observations, mentoring opportunities and jumpseating.
The agreement is open to all Ameriflight pilots regardless of seniority, equipment, seat position, or current position within the company. Both new pilots and pilots who currently fly for Ameriflight are eligible and encouraged to participate in the program.
Meets the following requirements:- 2,500 hours total hours minimum broken down as follows:1,500 hours to ATP
§ 1,500 hours to ATP
§ A type-rated pilot for Ameriflight with an additional 1,000 hours as PIC for Ameriflight
§ In addition, the Pilot must complete a minimum of 24 months flying the line as a pilot for Ameriflight (i.e. 24 months after completion of OE). This requirement may be waived on a case-by-case basis upon mutual agreement between the Ameriflight Chief Pilot and the Allegiant Chief Pilot (or their designees).
1) Recommended for the training slot at Allegiant by either the Chief Pilot or Director of Training at Ameriflight.
2) Has not been the subject of disciplinary action by Ameriflight for any reason during their employment with Ameriflight.
3) Has no failed check rides within the previous 18 months.
4) Will be required to complete a pilot application, employment records review pursuant to PRIA, and a pre-employment drug screening as required for employment at Allegiant.
5) Satisfactorily completes an instrument proficiency validation and a final entry interview administered by Allegiant within 90 days of the anticipated class date.
Hope that helps! Let us know if you have any other questions!
Am I missing something or is true that to get on with Allegiant through this Ameriflight program you'd need 2500 hours tt? What benefit does a pilot have to do this when every other regional will hire at 1500?
