Guys,
Surely if the COMPULSORY retirement age at 55 is lifted, BA must still honour your terms, allowing you to retire at 55. I'd say a large proportion of the pilots would be better off taking the pension and then getting jobs elsewhere too, like many have in the past? Don't you think?
Of course if you were a late joiner and havent made the dizzy heights of PP 28 or 25 or whatever then that may not apply !
