He called that amount of money "chump change." You then extrapolate to "all about me."
How about we look at the collective number. In 2015 Delta pilot pay will be $420 million more than it is this year using the same pay hour formula.
It will take UAL/CAL over $700 million per year and 400 additional pilot hires to come up to that contract.
Chump change...all about me....really. Really?
