Meanwhile in outer space...

What is the forecast for EMB 120 FO hiring this peak season?

ERAU taught him everything he needs to know. Just waiting for UPS to call...

I don't know the numbers. But we are acquiring another E120. Even after losing a 120 run out of CVG to a Southern 737.

Hi!

Here are the hours you'd get here before going there:
"A type-rated pilot for Ameriflight with an additional 1,500 hours Turbine PIC for AMF, with preferably at least 500 of those PIC hours in the EMB120 aircraft or other crew type certificated aircraft."
There are other requirements aside from the hour requirements like being in good standing with both companies, being ATP qualified, etc.

Hope that helps!

Hi!

We have two in our September class (starting tomorrow), but that fills us up and we likely won't be able to hire more until the beginning of next year when the upgrade.

Hope that helps!

Hi!

We do pay for your ATP/CTP if you come in on a BE1900 or SA227 with us. We also pay for it if you come in on something else and transition to a BE1900 or SA227. (As a Captain, of course.)

Hope that helps!

I realize this is information from the website and double checked, but is that PIC requirement a typo? 500 TT and 500 PIC? :confused:

That's disappointing.

Were these candidates pulled from the existing pool of applicants? I haven't seen a posting for FOs since Feb earlier this year.

Hi, there!

Unfortunately, the PIC time is not a typo.
Our min for PIC time for First Officers in the EMB120 is 500.
It's not an FAA requirement, but a company requirement.
At times, it can be negotiable if your other times are pretty high, but for the most part, 500 is needed. If you have a lot of ME or Turbine, we could take you at maybe 450-475 PIC instead.
Typically, though, it means, you'll come in with 525+TT if you have the 500 PIC (since not all your time through training is PIC).

Hope that helps!
