BA pilots over the years have fought the fight to even have respectable wages in this business. You benefit from it and "don't complain".
I, personally, didn't benefit at all, from any possible BA pilot action...and never have.
Rather, BA pilot(s) actions have, in the past, proved to be a detriment to advancing pilots pay at other airlines.
SQ is a prime example.
BA guys retired at 55, went to Singapore, and promptly drove down the wages paid.
Went on for years...and this was admitted to me personally by the (then) SQ chairmain JYMP.
No sympathy from me, the BA pilots received (via the courts) what they right and truly deserved.
