OMNI does charter work, for the US Military (as stated), and also for tourists going to Hawaii, etc. They also have a few freighters I think?
On a side note, this DC-10 sounds great! I just hope it is NG and not another OG DC-10  .

Omni Air International is a U.S. Part 121 air carrier operating a fleet of DC-10 & B757 aircraft for major tour operators, the U.S. government and other airlines.
Founded in 1983 as Omni Air Transport, the company operated Learjet aircraft providing corporate charter and air ambulance services. In 1993, the company purchased Boeing 727 freighter aircraft and began operating under the brand name Omni Air Express. Cargo customers included Emery Worldwide, UPS, BAX Global and DHL. Success in arena allowed Omni to purchase DC-10 equipment and enter the passenger charter markets in 1997, where it has built a solid name for providing safe, reliable and on-time performance. Omni received authorization in February 1999 from the U.S. Department of Defense to operate military missions throughout the world. In 2002, Omni re-entered the cargo market with the addition of 2 DC-10-30 freighter aircraft. The company will continue to grow by introducing 2 B757 passenger aircraft in spring 2003.
