I know of a company that you go straight into twins instead of flying single-engine first. But basically both start you in either the C210/Lance respectively, and you build your time and move up to a baron or whatever it may be. Not sure past that what their schedule/bases are like. I had a friend that worked for Flight Express and moved twice in a short period before he came to my former company because the fact he moved straight to twins.

I believe AMF got rid of the Lance fleet, so you start in a twin as a newhire...

Is that Miller Aviation in Portland? If so, are they running two pilot crews or any low time pilots?

How low of time are you talking? He's hired a less-than 1000hrs before, but the guy fell through. Typical is around 1100 +/- 50-ish. Check out miller-aviation.com for contact info. I'd suggest e-mailing John Leichty with your resume and what they are hiring at.

Default right into a twin

Look at Aerocharter and Transport in Albuquerque - you go right into a twin, and they just raised the pay to over $45k a year.
