Thanks
How much do you know about Omni? Seems you should know the answer to a few of your questions if you knew anything about them.

PM if you wish to discuss further. I would rather elaborate in a more helpful, direct manner there.

Any chance at Omni if not current? I’m a B757/767 sim instructor looking to get back flying.

Always a chance.
What’s the worse they can say?
Previous experience in the airframe definitely helps.

Isn’t that the point of asking questions?

Yes, to get answers. But, for instance, if you don’t know that an airline flies passengers, or freight, that’s readily available information which could be found out by an individual before applying, or having to ask. But I’ll reiterate, I’m happy to answer questions that I know the answers to.

I don’t work for ameriflight nor do I want to but I noticed Omni has some kind of agreement with them for pilots transitioning from single pilot freight to 767. Is that like every other agreement, meant to lure in pilots for basically nothing or have some pilots made that switch? Just not sure how practical it is for someone who has only flown single pilot turboprop to a crewed wide body. It’s a huge training and experience gap and I’m curious if that’s even possible to do while maintaining your sanity and not to mention your clean record.

I believe some have made it through but I’m not sure of the exact count. It is perhaps a different kind of operation but not really that much different. The 1500 hr navy helo pilots that’s go through 757/767 initial at Delta have it a lot worse.

If you have basic stick and rudder skills, can crack a book, and are able to admit when you don't know something then making the transition from one kind of flying to another is not rocket surgery. Whether that be Ameriflight to Omni or CFI to RJ or 207 to 727.

The flow had worked out well for tge guys I know who've done it. Most get to keep living where they are and are now poised to increase their income tremendously.

You’ll probably do better than a crj driver. Seriously. The FMC will most likely be your biggest “hurdle”.
