I just started working for OO as an FO and with the current hiring wave in the industry I’m starting to think about what my long range goals are. I live in Colorado Springs, CO and would like to grow roots here so a home based job is more appealing to me. International widebody flying is also on my list of goals so Omni seems like a good destination for me. My question is in the collective opinion will Omni drop the 1000 121 PIC requirement in the near future like the majors are doing? Should I apply anyways once hitting 2000 hours?

Omni just posted an ad on Planejobs that cites 2000 total time, 1000 PIC. There's no mention of 1000 121 PIC.

Submitted last week. Haven't heard anything yet, then again I have no idea what the turn around time for applications is. Looks like the window is closed now though. Any idea what level of qualifications is getting interviews now a days?

Basically unless you bid split lines. You're still on the hook for 16 days with the 17th day at their discretion. This month I sat at home day 1 on scal and looks like I'm headed home a day or two early on this sequence that rolls into next month. For May that would have been 16 days straight at home, except that I did pick up 2 days which had them use the override day as a result, giving me 3 days over guarantee with the extra 300 and 400 per day on the volunteer days. In the end my month will be 13 days home with about 80 credit plus $700 with about 48 hours of block flying. Hope that example sheds some light on schedules and how it can be worked for pay.
