Just talked to a friend of mine who started class earlier this month; he said they offered the E-jet to anyone who wanted it. No takers, so they took the junior guy in the class and sent him to STL.

They must've all crammed the CRJ prior to class. Either way you look at it, junior guy probably came out ahead.
I guarantee some of the guys tried to change their aircraft assignment "a day late."

They probably had to go home and google what the hell a E175 was?

Man, what a horrible decision to have to make? E175 or CRJ700 / 900... People used to sacrifice one of their kids to fly a 1900...

They got had 8 slots for the E-jet in the Feb 5 new hire class. Three from that class took it and they got 4 volunteers from the previous CRJ class already halfway through systems (my class), and assigned the junior guy to the final spot.

I spoke to him at the new hire lunch and he is actually happy he got it after all.
