For the remainder of the compensation above the $265,000 limit Fedex could not contribute any more to your Defined contribution plan they would likely just pay you an extra 18% salary for the compensation above $265,000.
Likely not.
When the pilot reaches the limit, FedEx stops paying, period.
That's why our 7% B-fund doesn't actually give 7% to our higher-earning pilots, and why a 50% B-fund would do them no good.
