Ameriflight....required multi to apply?

Do you have any?

If yes, then you meet the competitive minimums for a Chieftain position, so go ahead and apply. :)
 
And... UH... I'm telling you, if you have any multi along with the rest of the 135 mins, you're probably competitive. They hire below the published multi mins all the time, so I can't give you a magical range that would mean anything. Just apply online, call them up, and see what happens.
 
I 'think' he means competitive is all that it takes so that the text on your license says "commercial pilot Multi-engine land"

if you did your add-on in 5 hours then 1200/5 would be competitive.

Edit: He beat me to it.
 
If you have 135 mins, a multi rating, and your resume in....you should get a call. If not PM me your name and I'll see what I can do.
 
I should have 135 mins by February....with maybe 25-50 multi. If you have less than 1200 or are short on night time for example, I assume you can sit right seat until reaching 135 IFR?
 
Not sure the specs, but a CFI friend of mine got a job with Colgan Air flying a Saab. 900hrs, 55 multi. Most likely flying right seat though.
 
Colgan is Part 121....they don't really care about your flight time.

Part 135 IFR single pilot is a bit different.
 
If you are within twenty hours of the minimums, apply. You'll do about twenty hours in training anyway. I was a few hours short of the night requirement and I got it during training.
 
I was hired last month with 25 hours of multi time. It's really exactly as EatSleepFly and KLB said. If you have a commercial multi and 135.243c requirements you'll probably get a call.
 
Amflight is a single pilot operation. No need for right seaters.

They do have Emb120s they hire into the right seat at around 500 hours. Also, they hire training instructors around 500 hours, and you can instruct there until you hit 135 mins. Then, of course there is the pft right seat program that no one ever talks about :P

What about the system TDY situation at Amflight, is it competitive or is it something most people dont want? I'm interested in amflight and I'll be at 1500 hours in a few months (about 600 multi) and was wondering if it would be possible to go straight into a TDY position.

It's on a need basis. It usually goes senior though. The best way to get it is to go in Burbank or Ontario based and do regular TDY for a while. These are the only bases that usually send people out TDY. You'll make more money doing regular TDY anyway.
 
Yeah, I am.

Is that a hard base to get in to?

I'm currently instructing at MWH and I think by the time I leave here with my 4 year I will probably well with in 135 minimums. This is one of the places I am looking at to stay close to home.
