Hey... what... hang on. I know I haven't logged on to the BALPA web site for a week but
"BARP pilots have said they won't strike for NAPS" Hand Solo.
It was a BARP pilot that started the very first pension thread "BA to address the pension issue" and BARP pilots have shown full support ever since. One blip over the Italian Tramp was ironed out, I thought.
BARP pilots support the NAPs stance because if NAPS falls BARP will never be improved. And lets face it you can't call a BARP pension a pension, it's a hand-out.
Currently 1 in 13 pilots are BARP and 1 in 10 cabin crew.
Off to check the BALPA website, sounds like someone's thrown a wobbly.
