It's a great idea on paper and probably works for small 135 companies when they have Just maybe handfuls of pilots, but say a company for example Skywest to offer this who has a few thousand pilots, with probably a pretty large share that commute to offer each and everyone of them a chance to be home based maybe far stretched. It's an interesting concept but the issue, what if say Skywest doesn't fly to that persons home town, would they have to start service there? What if only one person commutes from said location, or how would trips start? That's a lot of movement of reserves from hubs to out stations and deadheads for them back just so joe doe can be based at home in Fargo.
