Using LTD as a tool to supplement your 401k, especially if you didn't pay into the cost associated with that is a horrible suggestion. Sure it's nice for you to get another two years of pay, but it's the younger pilots that will be paying the premium for it. Most selfish and ignorant post of the month. The stagnation for 2 years is a cost to those junior already..
