Reread my point number two if you think the company would not be committing time and resources in this instance. They would be over staffing a category (costing lots of money in training/moving expenses for a new category) in a base that has great "commuting" weather and then "hoping" pilots would bid a VB in the middle of the country from this one base? I say again, NOT GONNA HAPPEN with just one base to recruit pilots to staff the VB from...
I agree with your last sentence.
