Then , assuming most (some) of the displaced folks want to stay in LAX, they could just get the new assignment, the 12 days of training, and bang zoom the 787 base has grown quickly by the 15 bids on the vacancy and however many 777 FOs want to move over.
The 787 production tracking shows we have 7 of the 787-10s coming by April. Not sure how quickly the rest will come after then as that is as far into the future the website shows.
LAX - PVG is being flown by SFO so its already understaffed. The flying may not grow but atleast they can get their PVG flying trip back.
