When comparing T & Cs of all the major operators, am I not right in saying that CHC UK is the only one still running any kind of defined benefit pension scheme. My recollection is that those guys at Bristow had theirs closed down and are now on a money purchase type scheme........saving the company heaps of money which is being trickled back by means of a slightly higher salary. I know which side of the fence I would prefer to be sitting!!!!!
