I'd also guess the DFW "anywhere but hellanta" crowd would look into it too, but DFW-IAD would be a hard commute.
One option ASA has is to run a virtual base, or even flow people through as we do now in CVG. From what I've heard, ASA has said they will not open a base unless they get a three year commitment since we've been burned so many times with that (SLC, LAX).
