Yeah I saw that. Which is odd because he has a 9/17 hire date which would have made him 20yo. Maybe he did the same thing as an FO and didn't start IOE until his birthday, and wanted to do the same as captain.
He also is at 958 hours, so he might not have had the 950 by the bid closing. Either way it's all speculation.
