I can't be sure though as I am a line pilot that does not serve so my thoughts and opinions have to be taken with that in mind.
Most of the payment was covered by insurance. AlPA paid 6 or 8 million of the total. Overall given the size and amount of money involved ALPA has not had many lawsuits or major payouts.
