All the manuals say Airtran/Southwest I believe? 2 day training event in Dallas and ID# and I believe you can go right back to flying 717 with SWA 717 Cpt and 717 FO. NO?
I don't think that is a correct interpretation.
"The transition of these aircraft to Delta started in July 2013, and will continue through January 2015. At which time, any remaining aircraft are planned to be removed from revenue service until they are transitioned to Delta. Therefore, the B-717s will never be used in Southwest Airlines operations outside of the AirTran partition."
"Since the B717 will never be reconfigured, repainted, and eligible to be moved from the AirTran partition, we request this exemption be extended until February 1, 2015 when all of the B717 will have transitioned over to Delta Airlines."
