A pilot at the majors that has a family should have a family Trust set up. Most assets should be in the trust for a smooth transition when the time comes plus having your major assets in the trust limits your liabilities in the event some one tries to sue you.

I am not an attorney so you should consult a Trust attorney. Hopefully your union has setup a legal firm that you pay a small monthly fee. A solid trust can cost over $4K. If you have a legal plan at work only about $20 a month.
