If you guys want pilots make it a 7 on, 7 off schedule or a
make it a 2 hour callout with the next up crew on airport standby. I really don't know your business but on paper that seems easy to do. most pilots aren't time building, they want their next job to be a career. I can't see myself leaving buckeye land to live in Detroit. Monroe Michigan maybe, perrysburgh, Ohio even better.
In helicopter EMS it is 7 on/7 off and pilots don't make any real money because they like the schedule. Look at netjets, same schedule, lousy pay and a line of people dying to live out of a suitcase for 7 days and cater to the rich. Me? I would love a career freight job but I don't see too many options out there. Years ago I thought airnet in columbus was going to be a long term destination but that changed real quick.
