Cool FLight Options Anyone?

I'm intersted in applying to the factionals flight options, netjets, flex jets etc.
In particular does anyone know the ups and downs of flight options?

Or for that matter the ups and down to fractional flying.

Any of the fractionals have a Tulsa crewbase? Can you commute to any fractional jobs? or do you have to live in your gateway/domicile?

I know a guy who commuted from BOS to TEB for flex jet in the Challenger 300. it wasn't fun though it was something like a 5+ hour drive for his trips

Good Luck

I have a friend who commutes to his Atlanta base from OKC working for Net Jets. I don't think they care. The downside is that you get one travel day with the 4 big companies...if you don't need it to fly home, you get an extra day.
Just a thought.

A captain I used to fly with a couple years ago got hired with Flight Options, and he commutes to wherever his airplane is when it is time to go to work. He said that they are making all the new hires live at their domicile, but he still gets an airline ticket to wherever they have his airplane.
