Y’all got PLAYED hard.
A new hire shouldn't care about the airframe. Take whatever airframe will get you your time so you can move on. Heck, if anything the -145 has an advantage as its the same type as the Legacy.
For new hires who got the -175 this will be a good thing. They get another type rating out of the deal. That looks good on an application.
