5. Virtual basing. Or even a step better, national seniority. Rebecca Shaw should not have to fly to EWR from SEA on the red-eye to go to work. She should have hopped on her Q-400 in Horizon paint, right there in Sea-Tac. Eliminating or reducing commuting would help both company and pilots (F/A's too).
And what if more pilots live in one domicle/hub/base than there is demand? Sorry, but if you go to nationalzation your still going to have pilots commuting to base because the excercise their right to live elsewhere. I can assure you there will be domiciles out there made up of commuters.
