You didn't. PAS 05 pension is considerably better than the old Spec Aircrew pension which didn't include flying pay. I'm much better off than you.
You're welcome
But had I not left at the age of 38 I would have lost my chance to emigrate and serve in a job flying far more modern aircraft, where I was able to put the equivalent of my entire RAF monthly salary in the bank and pay off my mortgage fifteen years early. You’re welcome, too.
