What happened at NWA between the folks who kept their full pensions intact and the others who did not has brought out a lot of anger. Most of that was from the more junior pilots most affected, not the other way around.
Interesting opinion. You think more of the anger was from the junior people. I agree. I'm also perplexed by it. When the pensions were frozen, NWA went to a DC plan for all pilots. However, our union decided that money from senior pilots' DC plan would be taken in its entirety and given to junior pilots to help even out the playing field. It hurt a lot of us senior pilots to hear us criticized for that "not being enough" and we "sold the junior guys down the river again."
