Seems in the ballpark to me. I looked over my direct deposit history and I was at 1900/month take home but single with exemptions set to 0. Also, 0% 401k deferral with a little state income tax paid.

Supplemental income: you'll likely have the weekends if that works for you. Otherwise, it may be possible to sit reserve and somehow make money online. However, most bases I've been to don't even have Wi-Fi.

P.S. I'm beating my self up for even taking the time to write this.

Just got this email from management


I’m happy to announce that Ameriflight has signed an agreement to help facilitate our pilots being hired by Allegiant. We have agreed that if Ameriflight pilots have met specific eligibility requirements, they will be provided a guaranteed interview with preferential hiring at Allegiant.

The eligibility requirements for this program are:

1. First Class Medical

2. ATP with a type rating in one of Ameriflight’s aircraft.

3. 3,000 hrs total flight time. Of which:
a. 1,500 hours has to be while employed at Ameriflight

b. 1,000 hours has to be pilot in command of a turbine aircraft

4. Successful completion of Ameriflight training with 90% first time pass rate.

5. Employment at Ameriflight for 3 years.

6. During that 3 years – a minimum of 9 months in some type of supervisory role

(e.g. Training Captain, Check Airman, Program Mgr, Asst Chief Pilot, etc.) unless

waived by Ameriflight’s Chief Pilot.

7. Consent to release of employment records and performance reviews in a manner

satisfactory to Ameriflight.

When Allegiant gets a contract, it might become a place to go. But until then, I can't imagine this will be too enticing to anyone that actually meets the requirements (if there are any!).

Or you could apply when you have 3k and get hired by allegiant anyway. What do you think the pilots of the canyon tours are doing?
