Default Is there a retirement forecast for US Airways

I've seen this on previous threads for other airlines. Does anyone have any information on a "retirement forecast" year by year for US Airways pilots? Factor in Age 65 obviously

Hopefully it increases dramatically starting Jan 1, 2010 - when the "Snapback" doesn't occur, followed by huge assessments to pay for the damages won by the West pilots of the Addington suit.

UUmmmmm..... Airlines actually save money when pilots retire. Their payrolls go from 30 year rates to first year rates! This is especially true at US Airways (east) because of the incredible longevity of most of their even junior pilots. Look at the first year "probation" salary at any of the airlines; that difference alone would cover the cost of initial training!

US Airways does not have 30 year rates, just alot of pilots at max on the payscale.

But I would not believe if alot of the majors are in the same boat.
