There isn't time to train the new hires in the 1900 and then do the transition training. Why train someone to fly something that is going away? The answer is they're not going to. EVERYONE is going to the Saab it's just a matter of getting them on property and getting the flights started ASAP... If this weren't true then why the street captains? I know it stinks for those in the 1900 right now but I think the fact that they're doing it this way shows how much growth they are ramping up for... I'm excited to be on board...
I understand what you are saying and your logic makes perfectly good sense. I am asking this question as a 9E pilot who watched his company do pretty close to the samething you describe above. This is the only reason I asked. In this buisness things don't always have to make sense, management just needs to want it bad enough.
