Why doesn't Spec Aircrew Flying Pay form part of RAF Pension?

Because although it is called 'Flying Pay' it is in fact an allowance, something added on top of pay and not pay itself. I remember there being much commotion about this in the late 1980's and 'Redress of Complaints' being fired up to Group. Nothing happened then, there was no 'satisfaction' and there is unlikely to be any now. It's an allowance with the wrong name - get over it.
