Writing on the wall for anyone considering this company, or already there. And it’s not that they can’t find skilled pilots, it’s that they can’t, or won’t change the toxic areas of the business that cause good pilots and mechanics/dispatchers to leave or look elsewhere.
And Covid just emphasized those things.
If pay and QoL and maintenance was what it should be, AMF would never find itself short of skilled, competent life long employees. I guess robots are easier and cheaper anyway.
I would bet that UPS and FedEx are bankrolling this somehow. Testing it at AMF. FedEx spent tons of money to convert old 3 man DC10s into old 2 man MD10s. They are looking to eliminate another high paid pilot from the flight deck and AMF is the testbed.
