"The REDEPLOYMENT CLAUSE which means that BA at the time of its choosing can decide that the existing fleets are wound up and we are redeployed to NF(approx 11k main crew 23k supervisor plus hourly rate), to any other job in BA or out with 52 weeks notice.
Anyone in the FINAL SALARY PENSION will SURRENDER this benefit as well as their CURRENT SALARY when current fleets are closed down.
