Pros

The aircraft fleet size is small but there is plenty to get acquainted to. I loved the learning experience

Cons

Management is sub par. Can't ever do something they promised would get done on a personal level. Got let go blindsidedly due to company cutbacks and supervisors knew but wouldn't give a heads up.

Thank you for taking the time to review us. We are glad to hear working for us was a learning experience for you! With 150+ aircraft and 5 different types of aircraft, we try to give everyone the time and experience they desire to build their careers. We are constantly working to become a better company and have recently made some big changes in hopes of strengthening our leadership team and decreasing employee turnover. We are aware of the importance of each of our employees and are also implementing many new things/programs/incentives to reduce employee turnover and hear our employees better.

Good time building, bad airline

Pros

Turbine PIC is great for your career, if you survive.

Cons

High turnover in pilots and mechanics means poor or dangerous work environments. Mechanics that don’t know what they’re doing, maintenance leads that sign off things without checking. That paired with new pilots means accidents and deviations.

Poor operational control and management

Pros

Good pay. Multi turbine. The end.

Cons

Long work days, with “short breaks”(playing minimum rest hours as a normal operation) at outstations. Extremely poor organizational skills. Operations lacks general aviation experience. Spending asinine amounts of money and people’s time for no reason. No appreciation or even so much as pat on the back for getting them out of a tough spot. You’re going to be a number here, not a person. Aging equipment with no upgrade or avionics in sight. Stretching these planes to the very max operational limit with no reserves then wondering why they are hemmeraging money when they all break down.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We’re glad to see that you have found the pay and flight time at Ameriflight is worthwhile. Our hope is that all of our employees feel appreciated and valued at our company. We are currently working on ways to make that more apparent across the board. While our aircraft are not brand new, our maintenance and leadership teams do an excellent job of taking care of each one. Safety is our #1 priority and pilots are never asked to fly planes they do not deem safe themselves. We understand that the shortage of pilots can sometimes cause a busier schedule. But rest assured, our Recruiting team is working hard to fill our open pilot positions. As a current employee, we hope you notice those changes soon and find them to be helpful. As always, if you have any suggestions, don’t hesitate to send them our way! communications@ameriflight.com
