No. More that it seems to be the height of stupidity to be recruiting pilots externally to the group whilst so many pilots currently employed within the group are stood down and not working (or getting paid).
I guess from the accountant's point of view you create multiple training events if you were to put say A380 crew on the 717 compared to hiring people who had already flown the aircraft. The A380 crew would have to do a full endorsement plus line training, then when they go back to Long Haul they have to do more line training and sim work, plus then the 717 has to fill the hole they create by leaving.
