With the 350 the company adopted the Airbus conversion - so not a cx space shuttle course. If anything too short as we had to figure a lot out on the line. Although the 330 and 350 are very different airframes it is remarkably easy to switch between the two. I don't know if Boeing have managed to make the 787 similar enough to a 777. The 777 is a 30 year old aeroplane (and the last decent aircraft Boeing made).

Now would be a vary good time for CX to screw Boeing down on prices and / or delivery options.
