If you want to get hired into the 99, your best bet is to contact the particular base you are interested in (SLC or PHX for example). They will do everything they can to hire you in to THEIR base. If you go through Burbank, they will likely send you to Oakland or Portland to fly pistons and give you little to no choice. At 135 minimums, you can get hired into the 99. People do it all the time.

Where/what aircraft are newhires for AMF generally placed? I am curious about this company but I don't have the PIC mins - I have 850TT and 500 SIC turbine multi, already working for a 135 company but looking for a change/better pay, and with the regionals slowing down right now, I'm looking at other options.

And yes, all of our ops up to Embraer are flown single pilot. Best training you can ask for, and you even get paid to do it.

Oak
If any of you AMF guys are based out of OAK, drop me a PM.
Ive never seen the EMB on the ramp in oak, is it not based there?
I heard through the grapevine a while that some of the planes are getting some type of avionics upgrade, Anything new a shiny added to panel.

We're getting Garmin 430W, WAAS capable receivers installed in the aircraft. The bases with airport destinations that have GPS only approaches or overlays will be the first to get the new aircraft. The ground training program has been blessed form the FAA, so now it's just a matter of time.
