Post by Keelique »

I am looking into applying for an AME position at NWAL in Fort Smith. What is the wage for a freshly licensed AME (M1,2) at this place. What is the town like ?

Great Company to work for but, well, little pay.
Fourth year apprentice 16.00/hr, newly licensed AME (M1-M2) 18.00-19.00 dollars per hour as per DOM statement. With ACA on Jetstreams 31 you get 21.50 per hour. This is not a money making position but the owners are are nice folks. Hope this helps.

Good company, I heard that the pay for AMEs has gotten better, if you are a good sharp AME you will be recognised, might have to negotiate a bit. Also heard they are expanding, so they are a good company to work for.

Yes they do and they go flying after a year or so of ramp work. Jetstreams and B99. There is a guy right now who had (I think) about 220 hours and got hired to become a pilot. Great company for pilot job applicants but there are pol;itics involved and it helps if you know somebody there (really well that is) and if you are a company person or likely want to take off doing your own thing in the future. They want people to stay in Fort Smith - which is by far not for everyone. The town I mean. But hey, if you are young and just want to get your feet wet, this may be the best company for the moment. Call Gord, (867) 872-2216
