According to Sailing, F/As are at 92% of pre-BK pay and pilots are at 60% of pre-BK pay.
(given - one number is adjusted for inflation and the other is not)

I think Sailing proves the point that pilots need to come up a bit more to catch up with the other work groups (or at least F/As) when it comes to restoration.
