Kenya Airways 787

So now with the dreamliner being delayed, seems like KQ might not take delivery at the projected timeline of 2010. Exactly who is going to be flying these planes? Since the 78's are replacing the 76's, are they just going to train existing 76 drivers including the captains or will they pull another fast one and train captains and bring in fresh-out-of-flight schoolers to occupy the right seat? There was a lot of hooplah a few years ago when KQ hired newbies to fly the heavy 76's when there was a bunch of experienced pilots available.
