It is about how much BA makes, because BA makes enough money to pay the pensions. It was not a "promise" like some people like to call it, it was a legal document, a contract of employment, and they can't just change things they way they want and anytime they want.

I am just thinking of the enourmous bonus "some managers" would get if they manage to convince the Pilot force to accept the new rip-off deal.
How about that....where do they get the money for that then? And it clearly shows how really and honestly concerned they are about BA's debt and deficit...... Call it integrity...
