BA management pilots????

[Speedbird777]

I keep hearing the term management pilots being used and was wondering could someone shed a little more light on who they are and what they do?
Do they join as pilots or managers? How do they do both? Why do they decide to do it and what are the good and bad points about being a management pilot? Discuss :-)

They join as pilots, and stay as pilots. But in addition to flying duty, they may be responsible for the Management of a group if pilots i.e. a Fleet Manager, or Chief Pilot , Director of Flight Ops,etc etc.
