No question that if you are going to commute you need to be LAX based. Everyone commutes and there is very little of the nasty, pilot hating Alaska Airlines culture that is strong in the other bases. SFO is to new to the system to make a judgement about its viability as a commuter base. Good luck with your search. One persons Vallhala is anothers Pandoras Box....No question that as a pilot group we have lost our way and are deep in uncharted waters.....It is going to take years(likely 7-10) for us to find our way back.....
