My understanding is that some new hires will get the E-175 in a couple months. I'm not sure exactly when, but soon. There may be SOME FOs going into the E-175, however we currently have a 4 year seat lock so most that were eligible to switch to the jet would likely be thinking more about upgrading. There are lots of senior Captains here that want the jet, so I would expect the senior FOs faced with either being an FO in the jet or a CA in the Q400 would choose the latter.
Our upgrade times here are around 3 years or less now I think, so the few folks that are eligible but that haven't upgraded yet are probably more concerned about where they are based than what equipment or seat they are flying in.
