read this article. Last paragraph.

Can anyone explain how delta can save 1 billion annually from the retirement of 200 pilots? if you do the math straight accross that is a savings of about 5 million per pilot.

It is a misprint that does not include the pay cut for the entire pilot group.

Great now the dumb@ss public thinks that pilots make 5 million a year!
