Omni is 20-55 on average. Lots of 1 leg, sit 2-3 days on reserve in some city covering other flights in case of sick out type stuff. A buddy just got DH from home to sit hotel reserve overseas for a week, then DH back to operate a domestic, then sat a few days hotel reserve in the states, then DH home. 2.5 block for the month, and it’s not that uncommon.

how many legs on how many days are those 50-60 hours at Atlas?

The other guy said it right

Atlas - make more but work more
Omni - make less but work less

both are very good jobs. I’d probably give the nod to Atlas for varying fleet opportunities, trip variety, company size.
Omni is a small company with 15 planes and 370 pilots.
Atlas is about 100 planes and 2200 or more pilots
