Just Research
 

Doing as much research as I can...Anybody know if I could work for ASA and commute from Rapid City, SD? Would I be able to do so with ease or, would it just kill my days off?

Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks

It looks like all two leg commutes to ATL (assuming that's the junior base).

Flew with a captain that commutes from Bozeman, Montana.... so I guess it's possible. Glad it's not me though

I'm guessing that might become a problem for him when BigSky folds. Two leg commutes suck. It severly limits your options and is doubtful you could consistently bid trips with a junior line that would be commutable, hence killing your days off. From the flights Tony listed, your best bet is probably either SkyWest or one of the NW carriers. Generally if you want to live far west of the Mississippi, SkyWest is the way to go.
