Not yet. Those new hire Captains have not finished training yet. The spring of '07 guys are just starting to trickle out of the training world as we speak. There are still plenty of sevenish year FO's out there. In a couple months, you will probably see some new hire CA's sitting next to pre 9/11 FO's. Should be interesting...
