The bad thing about AMF is this if you have enough time to get right into the 99 you will constantly get bumped backwards as the chieftain pilots hired before you decide to upgrade. So unless you are willing to take an outstation, you have to be leary of that. People that are driving to outstations get bumped out of them as the company finds people to live in the outstations and as they say the **** rolls down hill. I know of a story of a guy who was in the 1900 and got bumped back to the 99, because of the above mentioned scenario. Also they will hire you as a training captain on the chieftain with less than 1200, but I don'y know what the exact mins are for that.
