When they displace those DFW CRJ pilots they might force a newhire out of his/her position even if they are still in training. If you were awarded DFW ATR FO on Day 1 of training, then there was a big displacement bid you could be forced out of your position even before you finished IOE.

As of now, there havent been any displacements so nothing is for sure and the company has also stated they are trying to minimize the displacements by offering lots of vacancy bids (upgrades). Just an FYI for those who are entering training right now.
I think the company might be waiting to see how many guys will be going to AA in the upcoming months before they put out a displacement.
