I've hand flown the Whitestone a bunch of times, if they are prepared it isn't a big deal, just fly the plane and balance everything. 'Hmm the other guy is busy with calls and twisting bugs, I'll wait a second before I call After Takeoffs'. Use the FD or fly raw data, both can be fine. Work together, CRM, cooperate-graduate and all that stuff.

Sure is an exciting rumor for someone with prior 121 PIC.

Most of the senior FO's are happy where they are at with either CJO's or are not willing to commute to NYC just for that 4th stripe.

The auto pilot is pretty sluggish in starting the turn

Most junior CA line holder in JFK is 1 Feb 15 hire. Most junior RSV CA in JFK is a 25 Apr 16 hire, just 8 lines down. Not sure how to equate that to a DEC in JFK today, but yeah, they would be on RSV for a very long time, even if no one jumped in front of them, which of course they would.
