Fixed it for you.
You are only looking at the U.S. pilot market when this is, in fact, a global industry. Specifically this is a European airline. What they are paying comparable to other European airlines. Of course perhaps you prefer the Lufthansa alter-ego airline Eurowings, which pays its A330 pilots 15% less than Norwegian pays its 787 pilots.
