Also to add...
when you consider that many b-99 Captains START at much lower time than other companies, thanks to the ACP program, the fact the AMF pays less makes sense. Fly a be-99 as an entry-level turboprop job, move up, make more $$$. Pretty simple.
Everything is about time or money...
Instruct for another year, making ¢, maybe or sitting most of a winter or come to AMF? The $$ isn't much if you consider you could get your hours in and be in a typed plane BEFORE you could start at one of the other "higher paid" companies.

Schedule is subjective at best, some love it, some hate it.
Out-based runs (IMHO)(home all day, away at night) might have the best deal, but in based or hub runs where you are away from home during the day does give the pilot more flexibility when asking for days off, and a bigger town or city to live in.
The grass will always be Greener on the other side of the fence for some.....just remember, it might Greener cause it's planted over the septic tank....
Honestly, I talk to some of the guys at the "other" companies mentioned and they are asking about benefits, jumpseats, CASS , KNOWN CREWMEMBER, 401k matches, and partner programs like UPS.....
People have different priorities.....based on yours, you pick the company. There is more to QOL than just $$$.

Does anyone know if there is a partnership between Ameriflight and EagleJet through Eaglejet pay to fly program? They send pilots to Ameriflight? Thanks

There used to be but I haven't seen anyone through there for a couple of years. The exemption that allowed them to log the time expired and was replaced by the ACP program. That is the only path I am aware of to log right seat time in our airplanes (other than the E120, which requires an FO.)

Do you know which kind of companies are they in partnership with at the moment?

FreightDogs

Eagle Jet used to have the companies listed on their site. I don't see them now, though. You could probably guess the companies by going to this page: Pricing
But your best bet would probably just be to reach out to them, if you haven't already.

I went to the Eagle Jets site to get an idea of what you were talking about. What is the pricing number that is posted under each job description?

thanks,

You'll need to contact them about that. They are not affiliated with us.

What’s up with the new Florida base? Routes?

FreightDogs

There are six openings in Florida, mainly Miami.

Two Metro Captain positions in Miami. One Metro Captain position in Key West.
Three A&P Technician positions in Miami.

FreightDogs

Preliminary info:
Two routes:
Key West (outstation) operating to Miami M-F evening and returning the following morning. Will provide lodging in MIA.
Miami based operating to Cancun M-F, departing in the AM and returning in the PM. Due to flight/duty time crews will fly every other day.
