A recent pension prediction done on another site with the Armed Forces Pension calculator for a PAS Flt Lt showed an immediate pension at age 60 of £55k. I would be amazed if the airline pension schemes, which are actually investment schemes got anywhere close to this as a
guaranteed sum - in fact I have just been down the pub with a BA Captain who has been with the company ‘man and boy’ and he thought that was very generous compared to what he thinks he will actually get in the end. Why? He pointed me to this article:

PS. He also painted a far less optimistic picture than some have on here. The Flybe captain I was also with felt the same!
