Sounds logical to me. I don't see why a guy from a different base gets to pick off the better trips. If my base's lineholders don't WS it, as a Reserve, I want the option to put in a high yellow for it.
Here is a fair way to look at most OOB transactions:
1). If you want to fly in my base, bid it.
2). If no one in my base wants it, then you can bid the trip.
3). The base's flying belongs to the base, and is on loan to the pilot that holds it. If he doesn't fly it, it belings in my base's open time, not your buddy in another, according to any individual's whims.
