I always had this question in my mind that how long does it take for a new hire at one of the legacy careers to upgrade to the left (captain) seat of a widebody aircraft, bigger aircraft in general. Let's take Continental for example how long do you think it will take for the new hires right now to move to the left seat of a 757 or 767.

I am just curious and I would love some answers from you pros out there. I appreciate your comments on this.
