Might be worth bearing in mind that if employers decide to pull you off the flight deck at 60 or 65 and allow you to stay on in another role, any final salary pension could be considerably reduced. After all, do you really think any beancounter worth his salt will pay the same salary for a ground bound old fogey to that of his marginally younger flying counterpart?

I can see the airlines falling over backwards to assist any way they can with this one - just imagine the savings!
