No, I said that soft money due to work rule changes counts and it does. Would you rather get 300 an hour and net 300,000 or fly the same schedule getting 250 an hour but net 320,000? The answer is easy. As to the question about 600,000 lots of senior CA’s are making that and if you drop the number to 500,000 the number goes way up including narrow body captains. The original question was a comparison of widebody Captain pay. One other point, most pilots when asked what they made in a year quote their W2. They don’t add back in their contributions to their HSA, 401K and 401 catch-up if applicable.
