After 24 years of no flying, I passed a (VFR) flight review in 1 flight (a month ago). I have decided I want to go back to what I always wanted; to fly for a living.
I really like the look of Ameriflight and I am very close to requirements, but the last time I flew an instrument proficiency check was in '94, before we even had GPS. I'm short on funds, being unemployed for over 9 months.
I have a friend who has loaned me his VFR plane, so getting the TT up a few hours is just the price of fuel. It's the IFR currency I'm most worried about.

Any ideas or even assistance available to get me to an employable position with AMF??

I have: Class 2 Medical, Commercial , SEL, MEL, IFR airplane
495.8 TT
73.1 IFR (only 4.4 actual) last check was 1994
29.7 ME
110.6 HP/complex
10.3 turbine

Sorry for the long story...
