Pay each pilot 150K for every year of service into 401K or another retirement account he/she controls immediately

That would require ~10.5B of the 20+B currently in the pension fund

From that moment on every pilot gets 18% Cash over Cap into B plan. Get rid of MBCPBPBCPBCP notion

- Every current pilot instantly on the same plan (retired pilots stay on pension)
- Never negotiate retirement ever again, which frees NC up to hammer pay scales and QOL every cycle like Delta
- Eliminates the old pilot vs new pilot strife surrounding retirement priorities
- Eliminates yes voters based on retirement section alone

Big winners are our estates and our unity. I can't think of anyone who loses, including the company...
