Remember the pension payments are like mortgage payments, you pay over time, not all at once. You know that!
So, why again did you just defer 30 737-800s for a few years? Saving up cash? For a raise for you guys? I hope so!

They are nothing like a mortgage. What a stupid comparison. A mortgage doesn't go up year after year like your underfunded pension obligations. You're company is using outrageous performance estimates to try and hide the fact that they are not funding it (or keeping it appropriately funded).
