HF - I do know what you mean, but from a management point of view (I am not one by the way), I reckon they will rely upon the fact that the coincidences won't happen. However if 40 777 Capts left, then yes I agree it would be bad for the schedule!
PAXboy - exactly why we should stand up to the pension thing if the response is unreasonable - that way WW can win the things he wants to and not the things we don't want him to!
20driver - fair point, I think we have similar views in places.
Anti - most people are in pension trouble, but if I have 40% on mine taken away, then I reckon I will be one of the worst off in the country in percentage terms. We have to do something, and that will involve a loss to us whichever way you look at it, its how much we lose and for how long that matters.
