In response to #3- source is straight from KB's mouth at the AOC meeting last week.
The buying power of $130K in 2017 dollars is $130k. If you are comparing the buying power to a past year, which year is it. The 2006 contract was the first contract that had pay rates high enough to hit the max without pilots having to work extra to max out their retirement.
As far as your response to #3, you just believe what KB tells you? Show me how if the market goes down 50%, you could still pay out full benefits. Your explanation doesn't work.
