Kind of on the subject of the airlines,
For those who have flown/fly for the airlines, if you were a LT now, would it be better to stay in the AD Navy until 20, take your pension, and go fly for the Majors, knowing you will never be able to get a pension with the current age limits. Or would it be better to jump at the end of the committment, stay SELRES, and try to get on and stay on with an Airline ASAP?
Since the personal factors are different for all, from a financial standpoint, what would be the reccomended route? I don't know enough about the airlines to even make an educated guess what the state of retirement plans will be in in 6 years..
