WW did indeed attempt to attack both the pilots pension fund and that of the general employees (which is also lumped in with that of the Irish airport operaters and SR Technics - formerly known as Team Aer Lingus). Both of these funds are Defined Benefit. WW tried to change them to Target Defined Benefit. The Chair of the Pensions Board of Ireland requested a definition as they had never heard of this type of pension. WW failed to give a definition, surprise surprise !
