re pensions i have VS friends current and retired both crew and g/s
the mood is bitter - the pension fund was moved recently for obvious reasons
like wise similar at BMI
LH topped up the pot by £74m (they were not obliged to do so as IAG were in the frame by then after the sell off and Bish was also asked to match LH - after all he sold off BMI and got very personally rich - but he refused to top up the pot) £74m to Bish would not make him flinch that much but all his loyal employees many of whom stayed with BMA and beyond for most of their careers that made him wealthy still flinch at the piss pot pension some now are still fighting for.
