Pensionable pay is also reduced for the 24 pay point scale short-haul pilots to match their new revised higher salary which is still lower than their previous pensionable. In short a captain on Pay point 16 on the old scale is getting a 5% rise in June, a pay point 13 captain on the new pay gets a 15% pay rise.
