Sorry Jetlife.
I hope you understand it isn't true home basing. Quite a few people, current NJ pilots included, don't fully understand the basing system. You will have a choice of 100 CREW BASES. The "Home Based Airport" system is slowly dying and only applies to certain "legacy" NJA pilots. If you don't live in one of those 100 Crew Base cities, you'll be driving to one. In some cases, right past an airport that another NJA pilot gets to use.
As with all things, CAVEAT EMPTOR.
