Ameriflight has a waiver from the FAA. With it, we created the Accelerated Captain Program.
For that program, we hire pilots around 750-900 TT and put them in the right seat of a BE99, BE1900, or SA227. They fly SIC until they reach 1,000 TT and then they become a restricted Captain in the BE99. With being restricted, they will have a regular Ameriflight Captain as a mentor and will have slightly lower weather mins (not quite VFR, just lower than normal). Once the pilot reaches 1,200 TT, they become a regular full blown BE99 Captain.
How many hours are the ACP FOs flying a month?
