Right. Most get numbers, but a few haven't. Last week 10 instructors interviewed and all were successful. They will get numbers in the first class after the hiring committee accepts them.

Some instructors started as regular pilots and went into the training department. It's a mix, really. The pay is based on FO Airbus rates, so once they can hold captain they have a decision to make, as the pay doesn't go up to captain rates.

Kindof. It's less than second year Airbus FO, but more than first year pay. When they get numbers they stay on salary until their seniority can hold second year pay, then they step up to that from then on.

It may have been second year pay at some point, but it didn't move up to the newer rates. I'm not sure. Second year now is in the mid 80s. The new hire instructors are at $70k, I believe.
