AMC National Pool Pilot  

Air Methods does use National Pool pilots.  Basically, you cover bases that have a need for long term relief while they hire for that base.  They try to schedule you to work 7 on and 7 off at that base, week after week.  You will travel to that base they day before and generally fly home the day after your 7 day shift ends.  Travel days are paid at the OT rate.  So, generally, you will work a 9/5 schedule.  Once that position is filled, off to the next base that has a need for a long term relief.  You get paid the ACCRA of Denver, 110% I believe, for your straight time.  Now, you serve at the needs of AMC, so anything goes with the schedule.  However, they try not to screw you over to much.  You are a union pilot so everything in the contract applies to you, just like a "base" pilot.  You can also email a pilot recruiter in Denver and they will be more than happy to fill you in on the position so you can make an informed decision.  Good luck.
