And who is to say that any future pay rises wiil be based on RPI + X%?

What if NATS offered a pay deal of 5% for 3-5 years? (just as an example)I think people would vote that in.
But then if RPI is down at 2.5% or even 1.5% then, ok we've got above inflation pay, but your pension is losing out on 2 - 3% each year.
And if RPI is above that then we get a below inflation pay rise

NATS aren't daft.

They could afford to give us a bigger pay rise in years to come if only a small amount is pensionable.
