No, not even that. Given that all the members of the BA crash team are volunteers, who are part of the regular ground engineering team who undergo training on the various equipment/techniques required to recover aircraft, get no 'call-out' money for attending such incidents what they did 'get' was in my view [other views may differ

Yes, BA highly regard their engineers
