PBS Frontline did a interesting show on pensions and talked to two United Airlines employees, a retired mechanic and a F/A who both had their pensions cut as a result of the United restructuring. What I was surprised about was there wasnt anything about pilot pensions and the damage done. I was under the impression that there would be greater cuts to pilot pensions because they are higher and still insured to the same amount as everyone elses.
Does anyone know first hand what the pilot pension cuts were at United?
