I don't believe there is an exception for any successor to this obligation. Therefore CAL buying UAL would still obligate the new CAL to pay PBGC.

ah just lay off another 1000 pilots or say and pay for managements stupid mistakes...that'll fix it

Funny how a pilot, mechanic, or FA contract is always negotiable but ask a bank, a bond holder, the PBGC, etc. to change their terms, well then, it's harder than trying to separate Rosie O'Donnell from her spoon .

Let's be realistic: arbitration for integration, loss of scope, and many, many furloughs. You RJ "professionals" out there, you're at the pinnacle, how does it feel?

The scary thing about SFR is that he is actually a CAL pilot. I always assumed he was some regional guy acting like an idiot to make CAL look bad. Unfortunately he actually is an idiot who is flying for CAL.
