Everyone in the Netherlands, employed at a Dutch company gets the same rules, not just pilots.

So anyone earning 9500 euro or more gets 9500 euro, it is that simple.
Don't be greedy.
Feel however you want, it is how it is. The Idea behind this program is to keep the economy going by everybody spending the normal amount of money. Therefore you need roughly the same income.

Personally I have enough to get fired and live like nothing happend for a whole year, but am still mightely glad I get full pay. It either keeps my emergency funds untouched longer or, if I somehow keep my job, it can get used when the paycuts come.
