Just got the invite for the July 6th class. Paperwork incoming soon. Does anyone know what the training compensation is like or is it just MPG?

Not at Amerijet, but congrats!!

Welcome to the family
When I went trough training less then a year ago, was guaranteed plus per diem, but somebody here in the forum said if they pay you for a hotel room you don’t get per diem (Paid hotel was not an option back then).

Sounds like things are moving along nicely over there... Can one of you comment on the type of trips being done and typical schedule? Is it long multi day trips or more turns and 2-3 day type trips. I would be a commuter (for a little while at least) and am just trying to get a picture of how it would be. Thanks so much!

thanks appreciate it!

thanks for the info. Can you speak more for what training is like? I am already typed (but way more hours in the 757 than 767), but just wondering if there’s breaks every so often (1-2 days off after 5-6 days of class) or if it’s just straight through? What’s the training culture like? Is it a PC checkride or AQP? Thanks for any info you have.

Training is relaxed, they try very hard to make sure you pass everything
When I went through we did have a couple days off every week
The checkride is part 121 (no AQP)
Study hard and show you want to be there and you’ll be fine, nobody is trying to get you or want you to fail.
Also very important, you need to be very flexible, you might change classroom and buildings every week or sim time and day might change, just roll with the punches
Cooperate, graduate
With a type on the 767 will be cake.
Good luck

thanks for the info.

Things are changing at AJT
Traditional trips are one day Caribbean/Central America turns out of MIA, however it seems we are going towards the ACMI model with a push for more ETOPS flying were you might stay out anywhere from 3 days up to two weeks
Everybody’s schedule is different, your milage may vary

We for days off currently. There are no lines. We don’t do 7 on/off or anything which would better fit our operation currently. Just being honest. Right now it’s a mix bag. We still are doing out and backs but over the past year we’ve picked up more overnights. For example the USPS stuff out of PHL and SMF, SJU. Plus we are doing a lot of ETOPS now with stays in Brussels, East Midlands and CVG. We have guys who commute but right now our contract offers no commuter clause like most places. We aim to correct that in December when talks open. But guys do commute and make it work. Most just bid to have all their work days together in a row. We recognize there’s much to do be done in terms of QOL and we hope to fix it starting in December when our CBA opens for Section 6.
