I'll give you an easy example. If you take a 50% pay cut you need to work twice as much, so 100% more, to make the same....
Yeah….
340 x 120 =40,800x1.2=48,960
48,960/238=205.71/1.2=171.425
For an 11 yr CA that flies 120/mo…they’d have to work 40% more to earn the same if downgrading. Not sure that’s feasible in the slow mos but could be wrong. 120 is easy all year long.
