IMO we shouldn't do this. If they want a base in MCO or wherever, open the base. There is way more than enough flying in MCO/BOS/etc to justify a base, but for the redonkulous fleet plan we have that waters everything down. This will make it even worse.
Under the current PWA they can open a base... just saying.
