I understand that there is an obvious difference from being trained as a "customer" and being trained as an employee. I would look forward to the challenge and wouldn't take it lightly.

Interview in a few days
Few things I can’t iron out just reading the thread.
1: I live 1.7 hours from TUL. My home airport XNA goes nearly anywhere but it’s not on the gateway list. Can airports be added? Would Omni let me use XNA anyway? I ask because my family only has one car at the moment and not able to get another one for at least 6 months.
2: Start to finish, how long is training? (Rough numbers work too)
3: I’ve seen a few people say you can be gone from home for over a month involuntarily. Is Omni allowed to give you your days off away from home or am I misreading that?
4: The +2 extension days. Those are standard pay and you get the Over ride pay after the 18? Clarifying I read that correctly.

Approximately 2 months until you start IOE. You're paid from the completion of your PC.
Over 18 is overtime pay (above guarantee plus daily rate) Days 17 and 18 are "override" days... basically you get the 3.56 hours credit for each day and there is no premium pay if you exceed that flight time on those days. Without overcomplicating it think of it this way: 16 days at 64 hour guarantee or 18 days at 71 hour guarantee.

2. My class was early this year and from day 1 of Indoc to completion of Sims was just shy of 2 months. Add in another month or so for OE.
3. The maximum number of days you can be involuntarily held out is 4 in a month, with a limit of no more than twice in a rolling 3 month period. However, it is possible that you might end up working the last 16-18 days off one month and the first 16-18 if the next. You'd have to be very unlucky for it to happen, but it is feasible. Some people might bid for that in order to get their days off to align with their plans. Your OFF days will always be at home (or some other 'mutually approved location'). However, you will receive your Part 117 mandated rest on the road (eg 30hrs).
4. The +2 days are called Override Days. Each day not received pays 3.56 hours on top of guarantee. The way they work is as follows: the company will designate 2 of your 18 as OVRD at the start of the month, but that is mostly meaningless. At the end of the month, you need to look back and see how many of your 18 ON days you were away from home. In order for a day at home to be considered an Override Day you must be either completely free from duty or only on Long Call reserve, Short Call does not count. Anything on top of your 18 is called Call Out or OT.
Good luck with the interview!
