FreightDogs,

I am in Dallas now. I received my simulator schedule today. I am going to have daytime hours on Monday and Tuesday of next week off. Would it be possible to meet with a recruiter on one of those days?

Thanks! Neal

Just PM'd you. :)

Thanks. Sent you one back.

You're doing an awesome service to this thread and all the pilot thank you. Any idea when the EMB120 FO position would open up in Dallas?

Hello, I'm currently out on LOA from a regional in Atlanta and will probably move to another company once my SI is approved, since my wife and I don't want to move. I actually meet the captain requirements but would want to work in a FO position for a while since it been 2 1/2 years since I actually flew last and most everything has been VFR. I see that you have a route that comes through Atlanta, but no base here, what options would I have. Thanks for you help.

They don’t actually have any EMB120s in Dallas, but they do have the BE1900s there!

only needing Captains?
 

Looks like there are no open First Officer slots at the moment

Thank you!
Likely not any time soon as we do not have any EMB120 routes out of DFW. That's what we put our regular FOs in and our only required two crew aircraft.
We do have the Accelerated Captain Program which would allow you to operate while living near DFW.

Hope that helps!

AMERIFLIGHT BE99 captain training progam.
 

I meet all of the requirements, except night hours for the ameriflight
Training BE99 Captain program. I guess it’s the “pay to fly” program? I don’t. Fully understand it. I have called directly and gotten good, fast responses but still unclear how I get paid to reach the 1200 TT
Required to legally fly the job. So this is hwremi stand
-1000TT
-100 Sim IFR/ 5 actual
-175 XC 50+ Miles
-500 XC point to point
-81 night.
-HP endorsment. 80+ hours in HP airplanes.
-830 PIC
-400+ dual given
-100+complex.

When I hit the 100 night, how does the program
Actually work? Do they pay u to fly around in a skywhak
While studying mateial they send you? Until one hits 1200 TT?
I have called them but I didn’t get the full answer. Help me out
If you can please. Ameriflight seems like the right path for me.

Thanks a million for the help,
Todd.

Hi, Todd!

I'm hoping I can help you out with some answers.
We don't have any pay to fly programs, especially in regards to BE99 Captains.

You might be talking about our Accelerated Captain Program - that puts pilots that have over 800 TT in the right seat of a BE99 or BE1900. You'll go through training first then we'll put you on our highest timed routes to get you to Captain mins asap. During your time as an ACP FO, we'll pay you (not Captain pay, but you'll get paid!) and cover travel, lodging, and per diem while away from your home on assignment at any of our bases. You'll be on an actual route, flying with an Ameriflight Captain.
Once you hit 1,200 TT, 50 ME, 500 XC (defined as point to point), 100 night, 500 PIC, 75 instrument, you'd become a full BE99 Captain.

Hope that helps!
