They plan to ground 8 744's later this year, they are not grounded yet though. BA are also doing the same and grounding some 757's.

Yes BA are resizing their operation, as per above, and that is involving reductions in manpower.

Is that another 8 including the 2 parked up at CWL? Hence 10 long haul aircraft down in a year?
