Not sure if the company will be able to wait until they start bumping 747 folks out of SFO, before advertising more 787 bids. But if you think it was interesting how many ORD guys/gals went to the 787, just wait until the bumps hit the West Coast.
Ironically, they have been senior manning on the 747 recently, so I don't think any of the recent displaced folks will go to training too quickly. Plus, the bulletin shows that they have no overstaffing in SFO on the 747 currently, so anybody that leaves voluntarily now will have to be backfilled.
A dying fleet with backfills, man things must be moving fast around here!!!
