I get the feeling that BALPA are more happy with the deal than other unions, think I may have worked out why.
Am I right in understanding that pilots have some deal at present that gives them 80% of total pay is used for pensionable purposes, as allowances/shift/flying pay is the other 20%.
Am I right that under the new deal, this figure of 80% slides upto 95%, which looks like a pensionable pay rise of 19%.
Am I correct yes or no???????????????????????????
