A pilot at my base with no prior EMS experience (and he's been here less than a year) is going to make $88k starting at AEL.  

He gets a $15K bonus after completing INDOC.  He gets $10K retention bonus at end of year one, $10K at end of year two, and $20K if he stays through year three.  

So how is AMC a market leader?  How is that competitive?  Why should I just "take it and be glad with what I got?"  

I've also heard of other guys being offered $92K starting if they have HAA experience. 

Also, WHY would your buddy you recommend ($25K is indeed a great bonus) WANT to come to such low pay?  Why????

TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE AMC.  Good job thinking this one through. 

An I'm not a military retiree... so pay matters.  Imagine that...
