It is mostly street CA's that sit right seat as a CA, but if you upgrade quickly as an FO you'll also fly in the right seat. It's true the most junior RDU CA is a 2/2016 hire (for April), but there's a couple guys just a few spots senior to him that are on reserve for April, and the most senior CA reserve is a 6/2015 hire. So figure on anywhere from 2-3 years seniority to consistently hold a line as a CA in RDU. Those June 2015 hires will mostly likely have lines in May.
