Just to straighten your facts, this only applies to a minority of pilots who joined before the late eighties, for the rest of us it's retirement at 60, with no option to go earlier. I for one have over 20 years left!
HOT OFF THE PRESS
The mainline ballots will go out on the 3rd August and the ballot will last for 3 weeks. Action to be taken within 28 days of closure (but can be extended by mutual consent) With the statutory 7 day notice period of stoppages factored in this means no disruption until 31st August at the earliest. Although remember that any 'baby' action my be slightly earlier as the ballot is already in progress.
