Pilot payroll decreasing “12%” most likely does not include the VEOP because those savings only began 3 weeks ago. Also, doesn’t reflect that although there were some re-instatements, CA positions are down. Those savings haven’t yet been fully realized. 12% down over a time period from April till now may be true. But it’s not the number that should be considered when calculating our contributions from today going forward. The real % that payroll is down from today, compared to this date 1 year ago, is far more than 12%.
