VJW are you rated on the 787?
The reason vs are going for rated guys is because of the reduced training time to convert them to vs op procedures. A non rated pilot wouldn't go direct to the 787 unless there was a time saving to be had, such as 777 rated. Virgin have a long list of guys waiting for 787 ratings, one reason vs have direct entry 787 is to reduce time to line which will free up trainers for other raiting courses etc.
If you are 73 rated I imagine you would join on the 330 or 400.
Best of luck.
