In all the time I've been here (which isn't all that long), I've never tracked anyone who moved to 717B from another category (other than a base swap), though it's possible I missed one. And if it did/does happen, it's probably only to break a newhire seat lock after the first year to get to a desired base.
Yup the one years are still flocking away from 717B (myself included) especially for us West Coasters finally getting to transfer home. Should continue to be lots of 717 for new hires.
