JSNYC: Just saw your note:
As I read it a GM gets 4 x 9 = 36 5MUs for 95K paid miles, AND 4 for requalifying, = 40 total.
A PM gets the same 36 5MUs, AND a 1-time award of 20 on 1.1.04 for a total of 56, PLUS 6 PMUs for requalifying. You are still waaay ahead.
This applies to '04: During '03 PMs still have unlimited upgrades, and GMs earn a lot of 8MUs until 4/30
Let's bring on a 12-year old math wiz.
