It is pretty foolish of them to sell it by calling it a "free" two year insurance policy, or two "free" years of a 50% FAE pension plan. Just as foolish as claiming Age 67 will "improve safety."
Actually it would just not be a cost
decrease as the pilots come off of disability. Cost would remain the same with regard to disability expense for 2 additional years.
