maybe his hourly rate isnt higher than an E190 F/O but his gross earnings because of overtime ends up being more than the gross earnings of the F/O?
I doubt that, Giles.

Yes, Giles, it's possible. Absolutely anything is possible. Just not probable and that rag sure doesn't prove anything.

Ok, good. So you allow for the possibility that overtime could account for his gross earnings.

Who to Blame?
excerpt:

The world's largest passenger jet has a wingspan of 262 feet - nearly the length of a football field. JFK Airport has a standard 75-foot-wide taxiway, which means the wings of the A-380 easily extend over the roadway.

"If that jumbo jet was cleared to the runway or whatever, he was just doing what he was told. As long as he keeps his nose wheel on the yellow line, there's not supposed to be any obstructions," retired airline pilot Jim Tilmon told CBS' "The Early Show."

But Aviation expert Michael Boyd told "The Early Show" that Monday night's incursion at JFK was a case of human error - someone was not watching where one of the planes was going.

"Forget everything else, this pilot ran into another airplane - he should know how big his airplane is," Boyd told anchor Chris Wragge. "But that doesn't change the fact we have radar systems and other backup that should have told the pilot he was moving along into another airplane. So we have a systemic breakdown here."
* * *
The reality is, I don't care if his nose wheel was on the middle of the taxiway," Boyd said. "He knows he has a big airplane and he ran into another airplane, so the bottom line of it is we have a pilot at the bottom line who screwed up. But we have other systems there that should have avoided this, and that's what we have to look into."

What does taxiway width got to do with anything? The only important thing here is center-line spacing. The A380 needs 260/2 = 130 feet.

She pays just less than 30%, mind you USD vs NOK is at a historic low.
