They are and I've seen quite a few go straight to the 99, just have to be flexible on where you live.

Is there any truth to the rumor that the HWD base may be closed in the near future?

What equipment do they fly out of CVG? Are they hiring for this base (CVG) base?

Do interviewees have any options to hear base/position openings before continuing on in the hiring process?

thx

Still wondering. Two planes are staying here in DFW for now. Gonna see how well we can charter them out. The crazy part is, with people that have left and moved, I'm the only E120 guy actually assigned to the base.

When they hire direct into the 99 is that for people with previous turbine experience? After a month or so I'll be throwing my application out there with about 350 multi. I unfortunately only have like 5hrs turbine so I was wondering if I could still expect the Piper. And yes I'm open to living anywhere

Tell them you'll move and there's a good chance you can have the 99 if one is available.

Do the 99 routes tend to have a little higher monthly flight times than the PA31 runs do?

I just applied with 1560TT 68Multi ATP Written

Usually they are.

It's hit or miss. The company has put people with 0 turbine time directly into the 99, but this is the situation with 90% of AMF pilots. Most pilots transition from the PA31 with no turbine. Heck, the 99 is easier to fly than the PA31. :D
