Omni Air Interview process

[On Your Six]

You're not actually thinking about trying to go there are you? I would hazard a guess that you are making about double what an Omni captain makes if you're flying the Global Ex.

No way. I have a friend who flies KC10s for the Air Force and it could be a possible avenue for him if he wants - although I am sure he will be picked up by Delta or SWA (his main choices). Yeah, I enjoy my Global gig too much to consider anything else.

With the people that are leaving with the 75's going away, any talk of doing a furlough? -kingaira90

 

[OMNIDC10FO]

just got letter today stating no furloughs. all displaced 757 pilots will be trained on the dc-10. with all the resignations going on, it is probably a good thing for the company to have a pool of people that they can train to keep the 10's in the air.

When is the vote? I would have voted yes if still there. Pollard told guys over in shannon no way for pay raises with a union or without. I hear alot of wash outs going on in the new hire classes. Guys are having trouble with the round dials.

Pollard is a class A prick! Looks like he's gonna have a little ol strike on his hands!

Ireland?? WTH is that all about?

I thought about Omni until they told me I'd be a F/E until Judgement Day.

 

[OMNIDC10FO]

Ireland = European tech stop/Home away from home!

F/E Forever? Who gave you that Info? They are usually needing FO's more than any other position. I got a friend hired with 2k+ hours with no jet time. The 10 was my first jet as well. The schedules are ricoculous, but the experience looks great on resumes and I don't believe there is any other place where you will upgrade to captain on a widebody quicker than OmNi. If you believe in paying your dues, 2 years at Omni will allow you to check that box!

 

[LandRoverNut]

Are they still looking for FO's. I have been think about sending my resume in for a year now. I am just not sure I would like being on the road for 18-21 days!

 

[OMNIDC10FO]

Thinking of sending them a resume for a year? Not sure I understand the logic. I assure you that you won't be gone 18-21 days in a row if you don't actually apply.

I thought you are leaving for SWA.
