Besides it being another TX base - not sure why anyone would be surprised with AUS being the next base. I've probably had more overnights there in my 2 yrs on property than any other outstation.
Also would not be surprised if SAN is announced as one of the smaller bases and will become the primary SOCAL base once LAX is drawn down - most likely after the Olympics. They've already expressed interest in drawing down LAX by a good amount. No love lost there either.
