That's no evidence Bar. Damn near every airline hired people on their teams that lacked any airline experience. Companies do that all the time. When our CEO was fired after our 98 pilot strike, he became CEO of Burger King...and he had no previous burger chain experience.

Nobody knew 9-11 was going to happen and bankrupt the industry. Pilot pay had NOTHING to do with it.
