Maybe it's a pipe dream but I figure I'd see what you fine folks know.

Me: approaching 1500TT, 135 scheduled experience
There are a number of Alaska operators that have a schedule like that or something similar. My Alaska employer is generally 5 and 2, but different schedules can be negotiated, especially in winter when the tourists are gone. We are CASS but most small operators aren't. Some of the smaller operators do have a recip agreement with Alaska Airlines so pilots can get home or where ever on days off.
