If they excess off the 727 and -10, the "should haves" will be able to take over whatever seat their seniority will hold. Yes, some will be filling the already fat Capt seats. The answer to me is don't excess yet and let them sit in the S/O seat for $100 less an hour. If we're fat in all the seats, no sense in paying them more to do it!
