The Convair has a high failure rate, 50% is fair. The company is operating such old aircraft, company pilots struggle to adapt to the automation of modern aircraft when they move on. Do you honestly believe that if a guy got a job at a major, that the major is going to spend a week teaching automation? Other than the CRJ, the place is disconnected from the real world.
