I would guess some 767-200's stay around as lithium-fire standby aircraft. It sounds like the grounded game-changers are going to be grounded for a long time. Perhaps a year or more. Unless they can find a single cause and repair, they are probably going to have to design/build/test/certify/implement a complete new battery system.
I think it might be good to own empty land in Everett, WA. You can rent storage space for undeliverable 787's there. If you look at google earth for Paine Field, it looks like they need more space. Boeing is scheduled to build 60-100 more 787's this year.
