I don’t blame you for wanting MB. Truly. But you can’t blame the vast majority of the list balking at “taking care” of a small remainder of pilots 17 years later who had 5 extra years of peak-earning work. Especially when the pilots who retired 1 day short get nothing.
It’s not going to happen. The votes walked out the door with the VEOP. And we are adding 200 post-probationary pilots a month who as (mostly) don’t want it.
MBCBP is separate from Min Balance some of you speak of. The min balance is an augment to the MBCBP or seed money to add to it. The MBCBP is a good secondary tax shelter that everyone will benefit from.
