Re: Imminent strike at RAF Shawbury?

From BBC article: Balpa said current salary levels, between £29,000 and £40,000 a year, are around £7,000 less than RAF pilot trainers who are doing the same job.
The same primary role maybe, but what about the other duties?
Is that the price of secondary duties these days?!?
A sad state of affairs, but has been coming for a while with the current contract arrangements, methinks.

[Correction:- If all duties are equal, then I sit humbly corrected, and have every sympathy for the Civvie QHIs. But that's the cost of contractualisation - to be cheaper, something has to give; servicing, wages, management positions. Which is the obvious option there?)
