How these figures are worked out

Only the hourly pay Amazon Prime Air states in its own open US postings for drone pilots counts here, each posting at the midpoint of its range; nothing is estimated for postings that state no pay. The yearly figure multiplies the midpoint by 2,080 hours and is an estimate. An employer gets a page like this one only while it states an hourly rate on at least 5 open US postings for the job title. The full method.
