Setting Pilot's pay over 100% seems to cause strange issues

I thought I would experiment with the Pilot pay %, and noticed the VA will actually lose a lot of money because of the Multiplier and without the Pilot actually getting more money if the % is set too high.

Appears it could be a formula problem and you may want to consider restricting the % level to max out at 100%.


Finances
Income from tickets: PAX ( 16 ) x Ticketprice ( 111v$ ) 1776v$
Fuel cost: Fuel Price ( 1.45v$ ) x 1.234 x Fuel Bought ( 781kg ) -1397v$
Crew & catering cost: -80v$
Cargo income: 0v$/100nm x Distance ( 528nm ) x Cargo ( 0kg ) 0v$
Bonus: 0v$
Pilot salary: Airline Income x Pilot salary percentage -2691v$

Gross profit: -2392v$
x Multiplier ( 1000 ) -2392000v$

Just don't set unrealistic pilot pay. There is very little a pilot can spend the money on. If he wants a private a/c he may as well start a VA and get as many as he wants.
