I kind of feel the same way. The email to said that not only EILs mitigated furloughs but also the VILs. There were a total of 565 VILs offered for the month of October. Hopefully they keep extending the VILs for future months.

I guess I didn’t make it clear enough for you. Outside of just a pilot’s hourly guarantee there are other costs associated with keeping them on payroll, health insurance for example. That’s all I meant; it’s not as simple as multiplying 72 by their hourly rate and coming up with the cost to keep them onboard.
