I wish that a HKG trip was worth £3000 but unfortunately it's not even close. Of course the pilot who went sick would lose all the FHR and allowances so I can't see the advantage.
There is a rich variety of characters in all airlines. However, the 'Atlantic Barons' of days gone by are no longer tolerated by the modern, post CRM, society.
The vast majority of BA pilots have immense respect for our colleagues in other airlines. Over the history of PPRuNe here have been many 'anti-BA' posts, but very few BA pilots reciprocate.
Anyway, I thought that this thread was about pensions!
