The figures are correct for a pre 911 pilot. They could also be correct for a post 911 pilot if the JBLU, AAI, NWA, and all the regional pilot grew a set and refused to steal work, fly without a retirement benefit that will provide a retirement, and include the soft time a contract needs to be a contract.

There will not be an raise or pilot shortage if age 65 becomes a reality which it has not.

AAI hasn't "stolen" any flying, has an excellent DC retirement benefit of 10.5% contributed by the company, and the average pilot receives quite a bit of soft time. I can't speak for the guys at JBlue, NWA, or anyone else, but your facts on AirTran aren't even close to accurate.

Your avitar is correct
You are lucky to have a job, because you're an idiot.

Two questions:

1. Why are they wearing their uniform jackets in the cockpit?

2. Why does the guy in the left seat only have 3 stripes?

What a joke. Those stats must be extremely old.
Comedy!

Just curious but where did you work before you flew Boeings?
