Ken, this discussion is nothing to do with legacy airline rates.
The pay rate I quoted is accurate and will go up. The hours however can decrease significantly if the flying program changes. As I said before, I've paraphrased a big document into two paragraphs and so there are many nuances (such as the potential reduction to income of up to 30% from the maximum permissible) that I haven't mentioned. Therefore anyone using those numbers on their own is quoting them out of context.
Now, back to the discussion about automation.
