Having done this for 12+ years I can say.. you are 100% correct!

Interesting. Given 121.436, I don't think they're hiring street captains from the military...perhaps the window will open for FOs again.

Good thing Omni doesn't just hire pilots:rolleyes:

Ah. This explains why the FAs have the thousand yard stare.

Question. I have been flying as a 777 captain for a foreign airline including flights to the US. Does this time count towards FAR Part 121.436? Is there an avenue to apply this time obtained from a non FAA regulator? Thanks.

(3) If serving as pilot in command in part 121 operations, has 1,000 hours as second in command in operations under this part, pilot in command in operations under § 91.1053(a)(2)(i) of this chapter, pilot in command in operations under § 135.243(a)(1) of this chapter, or any combination thereof. For those pilots who are employed as pilot in command in part 121 operations on July 31, 2013, compliance with the requirements of this paragraph (a)(3) is not required.

This is straight from the regulation. If you are not flying under part 121 (or 135.243 or 91.1053) then the time does not count.

I have never heard of an exemption. Not to be rude, but I personally feel that you should have PIC experience under our regulations if you wish to be a captain at Omni or any other U.S. airline.

"Under our regulations"? I am a US Navy trained American with PIC and CFI time under 91 and 135. Many people work under regulators other than their original one at one time or another. It's career and personally enriching. Thanks for the reply and after re-reading the reg It's not a problem for me. The Ours and theirs opinion on the other hand.......

Please excuse the ignorant opinion above. It's not one shared by Omni management as Omni has recently hired a few pilots from foreign carriers who meet the regulations. Omni has always valued candidates with prior heavy International experience.

Hope to see you on the line here soon!
