Usually, your dispatcher will have your route filed and ready for you to pick up your clearance. It may depend from base to base, but my dispatchers have been pretty helpful in filing plans for both scheduled and nonscheduled routes.

ok cool. Thanks!
Hope to hear something!

Not entirely true. We have Whats called Center stored flight planes. Which means our Scheduled flights have their flight plan's saved to an FAA computer and the computer will transmit them one hour before dep. Unscheduled yea the DX's do it.

Not around these parts, they stopped doing center stored plans a few months back.

Apc says cass approved but also swa is only agreement. Can you jump on anyone else or just swa? Also, can you do trip trades with other pilots in your base for more time off? Or is that not possible since everyone does the same 5 on 2 off sked? Thanks!

So nobody has heard back from them regarding interviews?

we trip trade all the time. Either to get earlier at night or for different days off

I find that hard to believe. Unless your in CVG. Even then you are getting some Center stored plans.

I wouldn't worry too much about having alot of time to apply to AMF, I got interviewed/hired with the nearly the exact minimums they require and about 8 hours of actual.

We don't have center stored plans anymore. The company now does it with a new software system that make it look like it's a center stored. The software files automatic every day. The company can make changes to each flight plan in house. Last I heard OAK was taking care of them.

The software gives an instantaneous correction to the flight plans in the software. Once a pilot fills out the discrepancy report and it's COMATTED up to OAK and entered into the computer the changes are immediate, no more waiting for three weeks with bad flight plans in the system and having ATC mad because three flight plans pop up for the same flight number.

The sim was broke, so no sim ride.

when was this?

Right To Work In U.S. For AMF
 

If you are a US citizen with a passport and birth cert. is there anything else you need to prove that you have the right to work in the U.S.???

It says they are hiring on Climbto350 but then is says also go to their website and fill out the application...but on their website it says they are only hiring from their pool. What a waste of Climbto350. :mad:

[quote=INTERNET PILOT;637217]when was this?[/q

It was this past march.

Not sure what competitive is right now, but I can tell you that a friend of mine got interviewed (and hired) with just a little over 1180 TT about a month ago.

If you have one from List A or one each from List B and List C you are good to go! If you have an unexpired US passport that is all you need.

Climbto350 is a waste of money. AMF is hiring and they have new-hire classes scheduled through September.

According to the AMF website....they are only hiring from their pool...and you can only update/edit a previous application.

This is what was posted on our pilot portal, and about four threads below this one. I am pretty sure they are not just hiring from a pool. If they were, they wouldn't be asking current pilots to tell there friends. If the online application doesn't work tell then in the email you send them!

Become part of the country’s largest FAR 135 Cargo Company!

Ameriflight will be conducting in-person interviews in the Phoenix Metropolitan Area on July 15, 2009. All selected applicants will be contacted prior to that date to schedule an interview. Interviews are by Invitation Only.

Please submit your resume to [email protected] AND complete the online
application at: https://www.ameriflight.com/application/

To be considered for interviews on July 15, please make all submissions by July 7, 2009.

Minimum requirements include:

• Current first or second-class U.S. FAA medical certificate
• U.S. FCC Restricted Radiotelephone permit
• Passport from country where the applicant is a citizen
• High Performance and Complex Aircraft logbook endorsements

Why the sudden need for pilots at AMF? Is it due to upgrades, expansion, people leaving? Any idea what the upgrade time is to turbine equipment?

Some outstations opening and people leaving/terminations

Terminations? Was there a mass firing of some kind?

Just got an e-mail saying that there are more qualified people, but I can keep updating.
rough estimates cause Im too lazy to look right now: 1230tt, 900 multi, 800 turbine, 1100 xc. Good luck to those with more time, looks like a great place to work. I'll just keep updating cause I know there are tons of people with way more time.

With nearly 3000 hrs and Two 121 Jet types they sent me the" we found that your qualifications do not meet our current needs" Letter. Whatever.

I think they are looking for previous 135 experience as well as low time pilots so that when hiring does pick up again they won't leave for a better opportunity.


When did you all send your resume? I sent it last week and still haven't gotten anything.

Sent it Friday afternoon.

Definitely overqualified for those guys!

Can you get in trouble with the FAA for saying you have 1200 hours when you really have 25,000??? I guess the question is...is it illegal to falsify documents if it makes you less qualified? :D

haha. I think it is illegal to falsify documents, Period!

I don't think the application specifically says to list all you flight hours...

Just got a call for a telephone pre-screening, anyone have any info on what they go over?

Nevermind. Just did the telephone pre-screening. They are hiring for the Chieftain in Portland, Oakland and Phoenix. Interviews will be conducted in PHX on July 15th and they are looking to hire 30-40 applicants. They said I'd hear next week if they'd like to interview me.

If you dont mind me asking whats your times and how long it take to get the call after you applied? I Applied today, Just curious how long il be playing the waiting game.

same here hope to see you there.

I applied last week, over 2700tt 700multi.

2250 total, 1500 multi, 160ish multi pic.

I applied an have updated my resume a couple times, most recently a week or 2 ago. Mosquito, any info from your pre-screen that forgot to share?

I sent everything in on the 26th of June, and was called and did the phone interview today. 1515 TT, 1200 multi & ATP. Was also told that I would hear soon if selected for an interview slot in Phoenix on the 15th of July.

Congrats bud! Hopefully we both get interviews, it'll be nice to finally meet you!

I had the phone interview today as well. They told me that only Portland and Oakland were the only bases they were planning on hiring into, they didn't mention anything about PHX. They told me they would tell me next week sometime if they want me to come to PHX.

I applied last week with 1650tt and 55 me.

He told me they were hiring into all 3 and asked if I had a preference. I said PHX, but I said it wasn't a very strong preference. Hopefully that doesn't hurt me. I wonder how many they called and how many will get interviews if they are looking for 30-40.

That's pretting interesting about the bases. I was also told Oakland and Portland. He also asked me if there were any other bases that I would prefer to be based at (Omaha, and Cincinnati).
