We would be complete fools to ever consider getting rid of the A plan...you know how much investment you would need to draw 130,000 a year, without touching the principle? How about a mismanaged fund, a stock market crash, a greedy fund manager that's convinced he can make you more money, only to lose it on a gamble. I've seen too many pilots at different airlines retire with a lump sum and wind up losing their investments in the market and having to go back to work, broke. And why have so many people already conceded the fact that the A plan is gone in the next contract??? Are you kidding??? No, it's not going away, and yes, if we don't get a bump this time, we will next time, by gosh...I dont like this TA, but I sure as heck don't want us going back in and trying to dump the A plan in favor of a higher B plan, foolishness...
