That's the stats for either the combination of both fleets or just the 767 fleet. 777 failure is higher then that and the check airman are passing anyone that makes it out of training.

Never failed a class, rating or ride. Don't intend on starting now.

Kalitta just started operating 767s and is looking for current and qualified pilots. Pay is much better then Omni and less days required. Other than that who care what else, because it can't be worse! Shot them a resume last night. and got a response already.

As a passenger, Omni Air is one of the worst military rotators out there. They have the narrowest seats. The Kuwait to Atlanta flight was one of the most painful flights I have ever been on.

If you come to Omni don't think you will pass because we need pilots the check airman are the best; and take there job seriously ,and have no problem taking you out ,add to the contact problems we are having, it's the perfect storm to come into .With the latest company ultimated no one is safe .

Omni hasn't done a direct Kuwait Atlanta flight in over 4 years.

From several Omni pilot friends as a source. Omni management said unless the pilots sign this contract proposal they will be forced to sell airplanes and furlough pilots. The pilots are done with lower than industry pay and multi leg 22 hour middle seat commercial travel. They are not going to approve it.

Why would anyone leave a job to lose a job?
