Lynden has been using home-basing for longer than I've been working here, I think since inception; it's nothing new. Approval of location by Chief Pilot and Scheduling is all that's required, and the company will fly you to where you're needed. We had one guy travelling in an RV with the family for quite a while, just updating his parking spot from month to month.

We have hit all of the continents, finally adding Antarctica last fall, and are cargo-only with the exception of some specialty operations such as oil spill response and firefighting. Scheduling goal is 18 on, 13 off, with the junior lines probably ending up in Africa, where we have two aircraft currently based. Our busiest market is Alaska/Canada, and will generally keep three aircraft busy through the summer months. The other aircraft will be wherever the contracts take us. Have one in PNG, as I type this. Interesting flying. PM me if you have specific questions.
