When the pilot gets to the restricted Captain portion, they'll get regular 99 pay at $44,000/year. When they become an unrestricted Captain, they'll get regular 99 pay at $44,000/year.
We are currently looking at increasing the pay for the BE99 Captains; nothing set in stone yet, but we see an increase in the near future.
After that, there are defined preferred hour times to get into the BE1900, SA227, and EMB120. With those, of course, come pay raises.
Hopefully that all made sense! Let me know if you have any other questions!

I'm currently a bit over 800 hours, and will probably be closer to 900 by the end of July (have a cross country trip planned). Already meet all the other requirements other than a couple hours of night. Hopefully you guys will be hiring for the ACP at ONT in a couple months! Thanks!

Does AMF pay for your ATP CTP if you stick around long enough to get typed in the heavy twins in the fleet, or do they just type you at the commercial level?

Yes, Ameriflight pays for your ATP/CTP when you transition to the heavier equipment (1900 and SA227). Also, if you come in directly to the heavier equipment, Ameriflight will pay for it, as well.

The only aircraft that requires an FO is the EMB120. So every EMB120 flight for us will have an FO for sure.
We also have FOs in our SA227s, BE1900s, and BE99s.
The SA227 and BE1900 FOs are by location. Specifically LAN and CVG have the FOs.
The BE99 FOs are across our system (but not in every 99). They are part of our Accelerated Captain Program that puts them right seat in the 99 until they are at our restricted Captain mins.
Hope that helps!

Post Preparation

Good day, everyone.

I've been creeping in the shadows on this thread for some time now. I am planning on applying for a pilot position with Ameriflight after finishing up my current job commitments. In the mean time, it would be great to have some study material to go over to make indoc and a/c specific training go smoother. Can anyone help me out with that? A BE99 manual would be great...and maybe a GOM?

Thanks.

The King Air 250 is very similar. On ebay you can search for "flight safety king air 250 manual/checklist." I bought the bound one with a blue plastic cover.

Default Upgrades @ SLC

How long would it take to upgrade from a 99 (new hire) to a 1900 at the SLC location? Would I be upgraded as soon as I meet requirements, or is there a seniority line to be upgraded as needed?

Any word on the BE-99 pay increase? The current salary seems pretty low when compared to the industry average.
