Most DL pilots hired prior to 9/11 have a PBGC benefit. It may not be a pension but it’s an annuity that’s paid out for the rest of their life.
Worth noting this isn’t much of a benefit at all for those hired in the late 90s- early 2000s. But from the numbers thrown around by guys hired in the 80s and early 90s, it’s not insignificant.

The QC is presumably the mandated qualification testing. Clearly they meet the QC standards of Delta corporate since they keep them on payroll. The real test though is if you are going to refrain from the free ride in the back. If you don't feel too unsafe to nonrev with them then they must be ok. Anything else is posturing.

some (not all) former NW pilots have a frozen pension. In some cases it’s worth a substantial amount.
