Is relative position not good enough for them?

.... Then those guys being held for training can move on up...

What's the average amount of time that people are being held on the 190 until they can go to training?

I don't understand the 190. They only have 20 airplanes and it is such a mess to keep it staffed and operating. Why not just sell the fleet and get 20 a319s to replace them? If you can fill 100 seats you can fill 124.

I believe they are much cheaper to operate than the 319

I've heard as much as 3 months.... I think they can hold no longer then 6 months? Maybe 757 or someone else knows for sure?
