They want to make sure we've still got the old-fashioned legacy airplane in our brain before we fly the 777 again, even though it shares a "common type rating". We won't get the first 787 until October, and begin operations in November or December. At that time I'll return for at least 4 days refresher training before beginning IOE - initial operating experience in the airplane - with passengers. Mark Ah, thanks. I only had time to read the beginning. I'll be sure to read the whole thing later, though.  ;)

Aha!!! Now I can see why you missed it. You should not have asked any questions until after you had read the whole article. :P
