The first bunch of pilots hired will be dual qualified (CA/FO), until more pilots are added to the seniority list. Most of the folks being hired right now are going to end up as initial cadre/instructors on the 175. Later classes will be FOs, however, realistically everybody they hire in the next 5 months will be hired based upon "captain qualifications" since they will essentially upgrade right out of training based on the delivery schedule.
