Framer;
"The 787 is a complex a/c and the JC guys haven't the skill/experience to operate them"
or even better "passengers don't like new types". (Ummm nup - the reverse is true and plenty of market research to prove it, the richer airlines even advertise it!)
Mate are you serious?
I wonder, do you have any EFIS jet experience?
If you can drive one of JC's B733's I'll bet you can drive a 787. IMHO (having flown 733's years ago and now PiC on a newer / bigger EFIS jets) the later the jet, the easier it gets, and having read allot of blurb and seen the cockpit of the 787 its looks STD post 777 Boeing to me.
Hope for your sake that was just a wind up, or are you really that ignorant?
