I think we are saying the same thing. Our plan is contractual and the method of calculation will be unchanged by any other plan that exists for the other employees. However, because total wages are a factor in the calculation, raises given to other employees will decrease our payout, both because of the reduced total profit
and because of the larger wage base.
Hypothetically, 2 years with identical $5B PTIX, but in the second year the non contract employees got a 10% raise, would result in a lower payout percentage and dollar amount for the pilots.
