from the latest AFAP mag:“Due to the critical shortage of captains in the Saab fleet, Rex has been largely unwilling to offer start dates to Saab captains interested in taking on positions in the 737 fleet. Instead, Rex has begun to offer Saab first officers 30-month secondments on the 737 fleet, to be paired with 30-month deferred start dates allocated to Saab captains. Unfortunately, the AFAP does not expect this strategy will be effective in retaining crew.”

Looks like they were right…
