And it should be noted that not everybody is in the same position I am when comparing their 401k (DPSP) to what they would have had with the pension. It's all subject to the whims of the market and how each of us individually handles that.
I agree completely. I was simply pointing out to Timbo that Delta does fund our retirement today, albeit in a totally different form. Each pilot's mileage in that funding will certainly vary based on any number of factors, including age, investment returns, etc.
