Flying Pay -Action required
This change to the rules is nothing more than a transparent attempt to cut costs and get someone an MBE.
Personally, I think that after 8 years flying I'm worth the payrise. If not then they can happly replace me with a new pilot and sent him to Herric.
I have the good fortune to have the orginal letter from 2002 that states P2 or P1 will receive TOP rate after 8 years from wings. This is what I signed up for, not these wishy washy rules now.
I have sent a letter to my MP and David Cameron asking for a Parlimentary question on this matter. BAFF (British Armed Forces Fedration) will also be informed shortly. I am also considering a petition on this site, if the response is postive.
Cheers.
