This alone benefits EVERY pilot.

Now, I think before anyone elects to dive into the investment side of this (which you don't have to), you need to be very careful and either run some scenarios out on a spreadsheet, or have a financial advisor look at it. I do think there is some tax-free value to unlock on the investment side since the Delta-paid premiums are part of your cost basis whenever you withdraw the investment. But that's after a 2.25% front end load, and a $25 withdrawal fee. I'm trying to get more accurate numbers on what the Delta-paid premiums are so I can run some scenarios.
