I don't have an answer perhaps holding our breaths until we turn purple is the right move.
That $2 Billion was not just for pilot pensions.
And, $1.3 Billion of that was to cover lump sums for the non-pilot employees that took early benefits.
But with this group, the only math we need to know is, "What's 3% of what I make?"
