That myth needs to be debunked now and forever. No one is getting a 60% pay cut. For that to be true current pilots would have been making $1m per year to be cut down to the proposed $400k for a 350 Captain. See how ludicrous that sounds?
And the No camp wonder why they only got 15%? Maybe they should get out of their bubble. I think that figure wouldn’t have been too different to the final figure even if this pandemic had not occurred.
$400k for Capt, $260k for FO to fly a widebody jet with some of the best protections in aviation is solid gold in the current environment. I bet every single one of the world’s currently non flying airline pilots (80-90% of the total) would crawl over broken glass to work under those conditions.
Be thankful and grateful for what you’ve gotten.
