was thinking about the wages bill a bit more, you mentioned £810K per 1%, using my rough (very ) maths i make it more £670K.
lets say 4500 crew and the average crew is 17 per a/c (boeing for ease of numbers)
Assume distribution of crew is 8 x junior, 6 x senior, 2 x CSS, 1 xFSM and assume this through 4500 crew
4500/17 = 264.71 (say 265 for ease of numbers)
cost of crew
265 x 8 x £11,530 = £24,446,600 (with NI contributions extra £1.7M)
265 x 6 x £13679 = £21,749,610 (with NI extra £1.72M)
265 x 2 x £18,259 = £9,677,270 (with NI extra £0.885M)
265 x 1 x £22,972 = £6,087,580 (with NI extra £0.602M)
TOTAL = £61,962,060 say £62 mil per annum on wages plus £4.91M in employer NI total = circa £67Million
