That is what I am wondering. After reading this thread, and the relevant parts of the JCBA I am still not too clear.

If someone has a 6-month emergency fund in place, or perhaps a spouse with another good income, is this sick bank thing even an issue?

If there is some way your job at Alaska is in jeopardy if a pilot goes out on a medical leave, or benefits could be deactivated without a way to pay out of pocket (COBRA) to keep them going, that is what I would like to understand.
