Boredhousewife, I am pretty sure you would be delighted to work for the company in question. They are a well established and well run charter and now scheduled airline with modern aircraft, good T&Cs and excellent routes. Their final salary pensions are well funded. The pilots rarely leave or even bother to post on pprune, such is the nature of the airline and it's management. I am sure the pilots have their gripes, as do we all, but to suggest that my efforts on the PLC were insignificant and worthless is both wrong and mildly insulting.
If you are ever fortunate enough to work for them, then I am sure that the suspension of pension contributions by the company during the 80s which we opposed and prevented will come up in conversation down the route at some time.
They are probably the only airline to have a fully funded pension scheme in the UK, so obviously not BA!
