Understanding the first birds won't arrive until June/July, how soon might we expect to see hiring onto the 787 at QR? By latter summer or early fall? What is the earliest that they might look externally to fill right seats?
Or, will "eligible" A320, A330 pilots (i.e., no training bond obligation on that fleet) get first dibs and bid it before externals get a chance? What is the most likely scenario? Take internal or hire external pilots (with some internals) as the first 5-10 aircraft arrive?
