You don't understand pensions do you? The PBGC guarantees a much smaller amount and it breaks it down by age and retiree status. So if you are an active pilot not near retirement and the pension goes to the PBGC you are completely screwed. If you are near retirement you are just screwed and if you are already retired, you might be okay.

They should but they didn't and they won't. Things will get worse with the NMB in the future not better. Man, if only there was some way of predicting this back in March of this year....Hmmm....if only we could look at NMB history...hmmm....

Union allowed the company to buy yes votes with a $40K bonus for those 54 & older in addition to the end of career notification bonus (instead of pension increase)

Are you over 62 years old?.

That's crazy 'cause everytime I see a trip in open time there's already a CA on it. Quid pro quo? Way to set the tone CAs.

yes so entitled to want to have a place to work at in 5 years but somehow you aren’t entitled because you’re a multi-millionaire that needs an extra 30k to pay for your grown collierville kids who are probably drug addicts bills still. Or maybe you are a multiple divorcee since it sounds like you are an alcoholic from your unhinged replies to everyone.

Either way you thinking you are somehow more qualified or competent than anyone else at this company or any airline for that matter is literally fall on the floor laughable General Tuck. Sir yes sir I have taken a look at the release and I don’t think we’ll need to prepare for any bogeys on our clear and a million flight from MEM-DAY tonight but I’m sure you will brief me on all possible threats anyways as all I’m thinking about at 3am is should I stay up this morning until open time hits so I don’t have to listen to this bozo all week brief like we are preparing to land on Mars.

You are going to be one of the captains everyone avoids. What an ass…

Go to delta where I am sure they are laid back and do not brief anything. Hop in the plane and go.
His point still stands irrespective of where he got his degree.

Why do the old senior military FedEx pilots insist on thinking everyone else in society is bitter because they took a different path that’s apparently beneath them? Get off your high horse. Top graduate at the anal academy doing the same job, same training, same standards, for the same pay. Maybe you should’ve gone to DeVry?

This thread is garbage. Where FDX’s worst attitudes come to really shine. Great job.
