I do not have any real info for you but I’ll take a guess. It’s likely a way to increase applications and essentially be a home based pilot. Expect them to airline you to a base (or elsewhere if needed to meet a plane) on Monday and then an airline ticket home Friday night or Saturday if Friday turned to poo poo. I would also expect the possibility of being asked to airline out Sunday evening if they have a trip booked on Monday and there would not be enough time to get your 10hrs rest prior to starting the trip.
