Without looking at the seniority list - the last couple of hundred - using your figures - would be a mix of A380/A330/787 SOs and very junior 737 FOs.
Who would fill the vacancies? Probably no one in the short term, but I reckon a few career LHers might want the chance? Hard to tell. Depends how much this current crisis has altered their mindset?
