If that's true, it was wrong then and no matter where you stand on this TA, it's nothing I want to compare any of our future pay rates against... A 190B 12yr shouldn't be that low.
1/1/2011 747 A $186.46
1/1/2018 E190 A $200.14
Yes, seven years is a difference and cost of living has increased, but the 747 is a heck of a lot more airplane.
My concerns are more in line with Delta pilots doing Delta flying. Scope has to be engineered for worst case scenarios and in a worst case, those E190's would be far preferable to furlough.
