The number quoted is very misleading and most likely includes the 40% add on for benefits, retirement, medical, sick leave, etc. and as CVG767A said probably is old information and skewed to reflect overtime and who knows what else. The company is trying to get the judge and everone else to think the pilots are overpaid and not worth it. Apprently they may be succeeding by the comments in the press. And I am a retired DL pilot and its a tragedy what is going on there right now. It appears to be a race to the bottom of the pay scale for all of the legacies. IMHO
