Question Anyone For the Professional Aviator Spine?

Interested in canvassing opinion on the PA Spine. Have just sent in my election form. In my circumstances, the cost-benefit analysis just did not add up; too much risk for not enough guaranteed return. I realise that for many the picture will look much rosier. Interestingly, there are still some vital pieces of information missing and, although PMA tried to be helpful (really!), the answers just weren't there to be had. I am particularly insensed that we are being asked to make this once only and irreversible decision too quickly, and without the benefit of seeing all the numbers. In a few years I may have to acccept that I made the wrong decision, but at the moment I am left feeling:

I am not a turkey,

I won't vote for Christmas,

I am not in the habit of writing blank cheques.

So the answer was "No, Thanks". Anyone want to share their thoughts?
