How to alienate people...
1) Ref retaining post failure I believe they can but to my knowledge never heard of anyone being forced to. There is no point after all.
2) Everything i've read here reaffirms what rumours I have heard reference RRP(F). Redistribution of cash, a little every year rather than four yearly jumps, ceiling is slightly higher not sure what happens to specialist aircrew pay(?).
No real change for those in the system now but those waiting will get the change.
No money until 6yrs post OCU or CTT could be problematic as people won't miss what they have never had especially if they are threaders and thinking out.
3) 70k for 6 years isn't much. I do wonder if you leave after 4 years whether you pay the full amount back or just a portion.
