.38p

Party,

I think FP here is more than 0.38p, but then you sort of make my point for me. The CAF manage to recruit and retain aircrew without a very high FP package, so as the UK is strapped for cash right now and for the foreseeable future, why should you guys get paid 13K FP anyway? Is a high rate of FP really reflective of the difference between military aircrew pay and civi aircrew pay these days? I understood that starting salary as a new recruit in the airlines isn't as high as it used to be.

The "Royal" part of the CAF was dropped some time ago.
