Crab and I are probably the two highest-paid non-executive captains in RAF SAR. So the RAF payscale stops at about the point that the civ payscale starts. Pay the differential (£23k on your and my figures) into a pension fund and what do you get over a career (OK, a banker with a lot of money, but you get the point?). The real point on this, though, is that we all made our career choices and we are where we are. When we (or people very like us a few years hence) are shoved into one crewroom with two very different employment structures, is it going to work? And if the answer is "maybe not", what should we be doing now to change that?
