I wouldn't say the majority of FNWA pilots are commuters, but rather a large percentage of DTW pilots commute. MSP, MEM, and SEA bases are mostly non-commuters....... So will guys chase planes? Some will others will bid in their base. I think DTW is a lot like NYC, guys are there but would rather be somewhere else it's just that a specific base works best for commuting.
