Actually,
The last guy hired prior to the purple nuggests (I hate that name) had already completed his training in the back of the B727 prior to being awarded MD-11 ANC FO on the MOB (junior ANC FO on the MOB w/ a 7/9/07 class date). The real issue for him, is that there will be no one junior to him on the 727 for awhile, so bidding his monthly sked with his relative seniority and no REAL increase in pay with passover pay until Jan/Feb is gonna suck.
