I am glad to say that Lucifer's story from the FT has some MAJOR loads of tosh in it. I have just downloaded the initial info from both BALPA and BA and 'thankfully' the proposed LPI of only 2.5% has been dropped and remains at 5%.
The BALPA Pensions team have done a sterling job against a bunch of thoroughly deceitful and totally dishonest thieves - BA management. I for one will be voting in favour of the package. It is not ideal, but a lot better than it could have been.
The news that the REAL possibility of BA pilots taking IA will obviously upset some on this forum!! Some of the uninformed rubbish spouted on this thread has been quite appalling. It very much appears that some pilots really want the worst for others. Not so much 'happy landings', but 'go on screw up - and I can get your job'!!
