finalchecksplease If you'd like to put a value on the "gold plated package" of the '70s go ahead, but I would highlight that when the final salary pensions were taken away there wasn't a commensurate increase in salaries.
I think the pilots at Bristow do have a case when compared to the CHC package. However OHS and NHV are very close, but with a different salary structure.
With that spreadsheet comparison of the 4 floating around, they are all broadly similar, bristow do appear to be last though, chc win top of the p1 scale, nhv win top sfo, which raises an eyebrow. Ohs do weird banding scales, the rest on annual increments
