Pilot occupation money in the 2012 FEC cycle

PILOT in a two-year window

This cell is Pilot money inside 2012, not Pilot money forever and not 2012 money from every occupation. FEC.gov puts $653,979 at that crossing, from 1,025 itemized contributions and 509 donors.

The string PILOT is an aviation occupation string, not an airline seniority list. Neighboring labels AIRLINE PILOT, CAPTAIN, and AVIATOR are other pages. This file does not invent donor names beyond the 509 count, recipient committees, or dollar amounts beyond the packet.

Readers comparing hubs should remember the missing key. The Pilot hub lacks 2012. The 2012 hub lacks Pilot. This page has both, totaling $653,979.

Reading PILOT without a roster

Famous job words invite a guild-as-actor reading. Resist it. $653,979 is itemized individual contributions coded PILOT in cycle 2012. It is not proof that Pilot as a profession directed the gifts.

An aviation occupation string, not an airline seniority list. A pilots pac, alpa membership, or airline pilot as a longer neighboring key. Those exclusions keep $653,979 from being read as a PAC total. The 5.9% ratio is $653,979 divided by $11,039,454. Other even-year joins for PILOT are not listed in this packet; they collectively hold $10,385,475. Citing 2012 as if it were the Pilot lifetime total would overstate this cell by $10,385,475.

Arithmetic on the 2012 cell

The 2012 cell’s volume stats are 1,025 contributions, 509 donors, and $653,979. Derived means are $638 per line and $1,285 per donor, with about 2.0 contributions per donor.

Those derived figures use only packet facts. No median, no party split, and no recipient ranking is available here. A mean of $638 per itemized line and $1,285 per donor can hide a few large receipts. The packet supplies no median. 1,025 contributions remaining larger than 509 donors is the expected pattern when identities give more than once.

Share of the stored Pilot total

Stored Pilot contributions sum to $11,039,454. The 2012 window holds $653,979, about 5.9%. Other cycles hold $10,385,475 (94.1%). The share is a ratio, not a verdict.

Because spellings split, $11,039,454 can undercount a real-world occupation and overcount a popular generic word. Either way, the ratio 5.9% uses only this string’s facts. FEC cycle 2012 tags a two-year window. Odd-year receipts inside that window are in $653,979 if they were itemized against PILOT. This file does not publish a year-by-year split because the facts do not.

What this join refuses to claim

This join refuses donor names not in the packet, refuses a party split not in the packet, and refuses any claim that FEC itemized gifts fund USAspending awards. What it reports is $653,979 from 1,025 contributions and 509 donors for Pilot in 2012.

If the overlay and this JSON differ, trust the overlay and FEC.gov. This prose is a packet snapshot of the two-dimension cell. Pilot as an aviation occupation string, not an airline seniority list can appear in licensing or contracting databases under similar names. Those tables are not this $653,979. The join does not claim a payment trail from campaign gifts to federal awards.

Closing the Pilot × 2012 record

Record: Pilot (PILOT) in FEC cycle 2012 totaled $653,979 in itemized individual contributions (1,025 lines, 509 donors), about 5.9% of $11,039,454 stored for the string. Source: FEC.gov.

The join is an aviation occupation string, not an airline seniority list crossed with a two-year cycle. It is not a pilots PAC, ALPA membership, or AIRLINE PILOT as a longer neighboring key. Neighboring keys AIRLINE PILOT, CAPTAIN, and AVIATOR and other datasets stay off this total. Quote both keys: Pilot and 2012. Quote the dollars: $653,979. Quote the volume: 1,025 contributions, 509 donors. Quote the source: FEC.gov. Leave NAICS codes and named donors out unless a later overlay supplies them. Restating the join without new numbers: Pilot in 2012 is $653,979 from 1,025 itemized individual contributions and 509 unique donors on FEC.gov. The same string stores $11,039,454 across cycles, so 2012 is about 5.9% and other windows hold $10,385,475 (94.1%). The grouping is an aviation occupation string, not an airline seniority list, not a pilots PAC, ALPA membership, or AIRLINE PILOT as a longer neighboring key. No donor names, recipient committees, party split, or USAspending dollars are in this packet. Live overlay pages override this snapshot. Mean gift size is about $638; mean per donor about $1,285; about 2.0 contributions per donor. Those means are arithmetic, not medians. The two-year FEC window tagged 2012 can include receipts from both years. Independent expenditures remain outside $653,979.
