Ameriflight training and base question

[Miked3016]

Hi I have a quick question for ameriflight pilots. What is the company housing during training in burbank? Also I understand you could spend up to 8 hours in an outstation. What base operates the B99 flights to Bedford (Boston) and is this a long layover at the outstation?

Thank you

Hello, you stay at the Ramada while you're in BUR for training. The B99 that flies into Bedford is part of the Buffalo base, but its actually based in Plattsburgh, NY (KPBG). I know the guy that flies that run, and I don't think he's leaving anytime soon. If i remember correctly , the routing is KPBG - YOW(Ottawa, which i believe is a layover), then get up in the morning and fly YOW to BED and finally back to PBG.

Thanks. Are there any other runs that have bedford layovers or are they all turns?

Everything out of BED is a turn, nothing based there.

Are all the airplanes single pilot ops or do they have any that are two crew?

Is training hotel single or double occupancy? Paid training?
I've seen on Flightaware a Miami-Bedford run using a Metroliner (don't think it's daily)

BE99 most likely if there is a spot for one. Metro could happen if you have turbine experience.

Don't go to CVG I'd offered. Not worth the hassle for the metro

It is a glow flight (radiation) that operates on the weekend. Typically the junior run out of MIA. Fly up to BED on Friday or Monday then make your way down the coast the next day ending at OPF.

They pay for the Ramada in Burbank which is double occupancy. They pay for the hotels after that as well and it is single occupancy.

what if you have family near-by and could stay with them? Or do they prefer to have people at the hotel regardless?

In my indoc a guy stayed with family. Probably not a problem. It's not a bad idea to be there for studying.

Same thing for me in indoc. A guy was from down by LGB. Spent the week in the hotel, went home on the weekend.

I wouldn't stay there if I didn't have to.
